The Järva District Council is to review the 2025 follow-up for an Ideation-Driven Public Partnership (IOP) with the Järva Parents' Association. Through this partnership, the association has organized activities for children and youth during school breaks, offered summer jobs, and reached 200 guardians with information and meetings, in addition to night patrolling in Tensta/Hjulsta to enhance safety. While the administration proposes approving the report, it raises concerns that 41% of the granted funds (SEK 500,000) were used for visits to venues like Leos Lekland, Jump Yard, and Gröna Lund.

The Järva City District Council will review a follow-up on a public-private partnership (IOP) with Folkets Husby aimed at establishing an association-run community hub at Kvarnbacka BP. Due to rental agreement delays and a water leak, the venue could not open in 2025 as planned. The administration proposes the council approve the follow-up and allocate 107,315 SEK from the 2025 budget to 2026 for furnishing and equipping the facility, which seeks to promote public health and offer leisure activities for children, youth, and families in Järva.

The Järva District Council will review a follow-up report on a partnership with Folkets Husby for January-June 2025. This collaboration aimed to help young people in Järva (aged 19-29) who are neither working nor studying (NEET) to enter employment or further education, offering drop-in services, fairs, and study spaces. The project successfully met its objectives, with 27 young people registering with Jobbtorg and 10 progressing to work or study.

The Järva City District Administration proposes closing the English-profile department at Barnkullen preschool in Akalla by autumn 2026 due to decreased demand. Most children with English as a mother tongue now transition to Swedish-speaking schools, and the administration believes children's language development, including mother-tongue support, can be ensured within standard preschool operations.

This item concerns how associations that have received municipal grants for 2025 shall report back on how the money has been used. This is important to ensure that funds are utilized correctly and contribute to the well-being of residents.

The Järva City District Committee is proposed to approve plans for a new group home in the Hedvig block in Spånga.

The Järva District Council is to provide an opinion on the City Audit Office's 2025 annual report. The audit found that the council's finances are generally well managed, but that its operations are partly ineffective, particularly within social services and safety issues, and that internal controls are somewhat deficient. The council must respond to the audit by June 26, 2026, detailing planned actions based on the recommendations.

The Järva City District Council is set to review its first trimester report for 2026, covering the financial forecast and goal achievement for the first four months. The administration proposes approving the report for submission to the City Executive Board and auditors, while also recommending the council report changes in total appropriations of SEK 144.7 million, phase out the Bromstensgården cost center, and restructure preschool cost centers into seven units. The council expects to meet the City Council's three strategic goals and maintain a balanced budget, though continued efforts are needed for certain targets, such as satisfaction with leisure and cultural activities and safety.

The Preschool Committee approved its first quarterly report for January-April 2026, which indicated that the committee was on track to meet its goals and budget with no significant deviations.

The Preschool Committee approved Aktiebolaget Eudora International's application to operate the independent preschool Eudora internationella förskola Gärdet with 64 places at Sehlstedsgatan 7, Norra innerstaden, starting June 10, 2026. However, some parties (V, S, MP) issued a special statement criticizing current legislation for limiting the municipality's ability to plan preschool operations based on actual need and population development, potentially leading to approvals even when there's an existing overcapacity of places, as in this case in Norra innerstaden.

The Preschool Committee decided to appoint Peter Sundström and Nils Lundborg as data protection officers for the Preschool Administration, effective 2026. These individuals, hired through the Service Administration, have been registered with the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY) in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation. This decision ensures Stockholm's preschool operations comply with personal data handling regulations.

The Social Welfare Committee addressed a proposal from the Moderates, Liberals, and Centre Party regarding the emergency social services reviewing their procedures for acute accommodation, following instances where families with children were directed to unsafe housing. The administration believed existing routines were sufficient and continuously updated, and the committee approved the administration's response. The opposition lodged a reservation against the decision, advocating for a review focused on quality assurance for family accommodations.

The Social Welfare Committee in Stockholm approved the administration's response to the Moderates' letter regarding the municipality's guidelines for disbursing grants to non-profit associations and adherence to democratic conditions. The administration stated they have never sought opinions from SÄPO or the Police Authority for grant applications but are discussing future collaborations with Police Region Stockholm. They also noted that only one grant was stopped during the current term for violating democratic conditions, but the same association later had the grant reinstated after taking corrective actions.

The Social Welfare Committee has approved plans for a new group home in the Hedvig block in Spånga, Järva, for individuals with disabilities under the LSS Act.

The Social Welfare Committee approved the planning of a new group home for six individuals with disabilities in the Stångholmsbacken 1 block in Skärholmen.

The Social Welfare Committee approved the Social Services Department's proposal to commission a group home with five apartments in the Utombordaren 2 property in Bromma. This aims to create five new residential spots by 2026 for individuals with disabilities under the LSS Act, addressing the city's housing shortage. The annual rent will be approximately 1.9 million SEK, with a lease agreement with Stockholmshem AB from September 2026 to 2036.

Stockholm's Social Welfare Committee approved a report on unanswered decisions under the Social Services Act (SoL) and the Act concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS) for Q1 2026.

The report, which cited reasons like resource shortages and individuals declining services, has been forwarded to the City Council.

The administration found that operations proceeded as planned and met their objectives.

The Stockholm Social Welfare Committee has approved a public-private partnership with The Salvation Army to provide support for individuals exploited through prostitution and human trafficking. Starting June 10, 2026, and initially running until December 31, 2026, with an option for automatic extension until December 31, 2028, this agreement enables The Salvation Army's Safe Havens Trafficking Center to offer structured counseling, legal advice, and information on repatriation programs to this vulnerable group.

The Stockholm Social Welfare Committee approved continued collaboration with the Street Minds association to further develop the "Housing First" program. This partnership aims to support individuals experiencing long-term homelessness and those in transitional housing, helping them combat loneliness and move into independent living. The renewed agreement will extend the program's operating hours, building on a previous expansion that saw monthly visits increase from 40 to 140.
