First-line Social Services

Haninge Municipality was early to establish a First-line Social Services unit. Within the First Line, we have gathered early and preventive advice and support measures with the aim of offering residents help at an early stage to prevent serious problems. We must be close to the residents and it should be easy to contact social services. One of many operations within the First-line Social Services is the Domestic Violence Team.
