In response to the alarming situation of children in domestic violence environments, the social services in Stockholm have implemented a new quick response unit. This team guarantees arrival in just 30 minutes to assist children at risk. The service aims to provide immediate safety and support to those who need it most. According to Maria Sjöberg, head of the initiative, “The safety of children is our top priority, and we are committed to ensuring they receive the protection they need as swiftly as possible.” The quick response team operates around the clock and involves collaboration with local authorities to ensure comprehensive care for affected children. This initiative has been well-received by both the public and professionals working in social care, highlighting the urgent need for timely interventions in cases of domestic violence involving minors.
