Vacant job

Children and young people are important in Ludvika! We demonstrate this by making children and young people the hub of the municipal organization. Most resources directed towards children and young people have been consolidated under a single board. This includes preschool, primary school, adapted primary school, and individual and family care. What all these operations have in common is a conscious quality work aimed at continuously developing and improving the work with children and young people.
