Original Title: Förstärkta familjehem

Authors' objectives: SBU shall produce a knowledge base regarding the methods used within the framework of qualified foster family care interventions. SBU shall further analyze and describe which components are included in the various interventions and, to the extent that there is scientific evidence with sufficiently high reliability, how the various components have affected the results of the qualified foster family care interventions. The National Board of Health and Welfare’s part of the assignment includes mapping the use of reinforced foster family care and treatment foster care in Sweden and investigating how carers within reinforced foster family care and treatment foster care experience the intervention. The National Board of Health and Welfare shall also, based on the knowledge base, create, and implement knowledge-supporting interventions, support, and activities around reinforced foster family care. Furthermore, SBU and the National Board of Health and Welfare shall describe necessary conditions to enable more placements in reinforced foster family care and treatment foster care.
