Do you want a summer job where every workday matters? With us, you get more than just a job – you gain an experience that makes a difference for your future. You contribute to safety, joy, and quality of life for residents of Falun who need support in their daily lives.

Last year's summer substitutes reported that they developed responsibility, patience, and teamwork the most during their time with us.

Here you have the opportunity to use your strengths and make summer 2026 a time that both you and those you support will remember.
