Research project How are the youths at SiS special youth homes doing?

The young people who were placed in SiS special youth homes between 2000-2019 will here be followed up , with the aim of obtaining knowledge about how care works in the short and long term.

The project aims to carry out a registry-based follow-up of the young people placed in SiS special youth homes between 2000-2019, and to identify risk and protective factors that are associated with negative outcomes (addiction, mortality, crime, somatic and mental health, placements, drug use and social problems) and resilience.
