Your Role

In your role as a Social Secretary in the High-Intensity Investigation Group, you will meet children, young people, and families who return to social services, where there is previous concern/prior knowledge and where no change has occurred, and there is a need to try something new.

High-intensity investigation work aims to achieve change so that the existing concern decreases. High-intensity investigation work often requires the involvement of several professional actors who collaborate around the family in different ways, several times a week. The work involves a combination of investigation work and active change work.
