Sammanfattning
Swedish Child and Youth Habilitation Services (C-YHS) for children with disabilities and their
families' build on regular planning meetings involving families and professionals, and appointments
and interventions implemented between meetings. This study explores the content of issues
discussed at planning meetings, and the relation between content and activities implemented in
everyday interventions. Longitudinal data from five families and their C-YHS-teams were used. Data
were analyzed using conventional content analysis. The results illustrate a process with a high
degree of correspondence between families' concerns, experienced problems, the formal decisions
and the activities they generated. Concerns were focused on the future, and related actions focused
on supporting adults in the environment, mostly the parents, thus indirectly relating to the child.
Problems were focused on the current situation, and to a larger extent concerned actions directly
related to the child. Although a family-centred service, interventions focused on the proximal
environment, may be underreported.
