In 2009 a number of cases involving group homes called Behandlingshem in Sweden shocked the Swedish public.

The social services in Sweden had become too focus on treating the problems involving teenagers in a residential setting instead of involving the resources found in the families.

Teenagers suffering from as little as normal depression with no drug or alcohol problems added were removed from their dearest and placed in group homes where some of them were taken avantage of by adults due to too little supervision and oversight.

A group of people working in both the public and private sector created this site to bring awareness of the situation, collect information regarding if possible safe management of minors and advice possible alternatives.

Due to their occupation the group members will prefer to be anonymous.
