Under the headline "A Sustainable Child and Family Work" there is a social obligation prioritizing the well-being, resources and everyday life for children and young people in vulnerable positions in Aalborg Municipality.

Aalborg Municipality is focused on ensuring quality in the authority area through an ambitious and visionary approach regarding children, young people and families with special needs. We work in the authority area according to a strategy where early intervention in cases, multidisciplinary collaboration, accessibility and more dialogue with families, networks, partners and civil society are key words in the change process. It is expected that you work closely with the child/young person and the family, as well as in close interaction with the important partners and networks in the young person’s daily life.

Family Group MidtVest is one of a total of 3 family groups, whose main purpose is to provide support to children, young people and families. On 1 January 2024 the Child Act came into force, which among other things means that as an advisor you must work even more inclusively with the child, the young person and the family. The tasks in the positions are diverse, but with a main emphasis on advice and guidance, relational work with the families, screening, mapping, child-related investigations, supportive interventions and placements.

We use DUBU as our IT clinical system and thus also ICS as a social-work method.
