Sammanfattning

The target group of unaccompanied refugee children who are placed on SiS has steadily increased in recent years. In recent years, around half of the group consisted of young people from one of the North African countries of Morocco and Algeria. Problems image is varied but violence, repeated escapes from other forms of investment, mental health problems, for example in the form of self-harm and / or suicide attempts and substance abuse also occurs. The lack of a common language, according to the staff of the institutions, is a major obstacle in the work of the group. Difficulties in cooperation with the social services are another problem. Young people with deportation decisions are a particularly difficult group when it comes to SiS mission. SIS is currently conducting a series of activities to meet the needs of a growing customer.
