Over 800 children participated in Winter Camp during the sports break, and "after-school activities" are now running in all municipal primary schools in Skärholmen. Additionally, free evening and weekend activities are available, and the initiative plans to participate in the Häng med festival and Security Days in May.
The Skärholmen Youth Council has decided to prioritize two core issues: more jobs for young people and reducing insecurity during evenings.

The Youth Council will also participate in several election activities leading up to the 2026 election, including panel debates and an election night vigil.

The Skärholmen district administration's management team protocol covers various personnel and operational matters, including a review of sick leave for 2025 which totaled 7.1 percent.

These include investigating serious crimes in home care, empty school desks post-summer break, new requirements in the Social Services Act, a citizen proposal for a begging ban at ATMs, and suggestions for a large sign at the municipal border and expanding the Sätraskogen disc golf course. The opening of Skärholmen's Strandstig and ice plowing for skating at Sätrastrandsbadet and Mälarhöjdsbadet are also mentioned.
The Liberals have proposed a "District Boost" initiative to improve vulnerable areas like Skärholmen and Hässelby-Vällingby, advocating for a comprehensive city plan with actions like faster graffiti removal and more bins. Skärholmen's district administration responded that similar work is already underway through the city's "focus areas," with existing budgets already coordinating efforts for sustainable development, safety, and participation, citing "Focus Skärholmen" as a successful ongoing project since 2015.
The Skärholmen City District Administration reported on its handling of Lex Sarah and Lex Maria cases in 2025 to improve social services quality. Of 28 reports received, 15 were deemed serious deficiencies, and two were reported to IVO. Actions primarily involved improving routines, training staff, and strengthening controls to prevent similar shortcomings.
Skärholmen district administration has reported a personal data incident to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY). On January 29, 2026, a technical error in the city's self-service portal for managers and employees led to unauthorized access to 5 employment contracts. The administration considers this incident significant, has informed the affected individuals, and a software update has rectified the error.
The Skärholmen City District Administration has approved an agreement with the Sports Administration for the latter to use and maintain a throwing field in Sätra, which they constructed themselves.

The Skärholmen District Council reviewed its 2023 collaborations with Löparakademin and Cykelfrämjandet. Löparakademin received SEK 300,000 for running courses and the Skärholmen Race for children and youth, while Cykelfrämjandet received SEK 80,000 for cycling courses, particularly for women who couldn't cycle previously. Both partnerships were successful in promoting health equity and social inclusion among Skärholmen residents.
This housing plan for Western Söderort (Hägersten-Älvsjö and Skärholmen) outlines the need for more specialized housing for people with disabilities and social psychiatric issues until 2035. Currently, there's a shortage of places, resulting in long waiting times and the municipality having to purchase expensive spots from private providers outside the standard choice system. The plan specifically highlights the need for more housing for children with special needs, younger individuals with social psychiatric problems, and those with co-occurring conditions, aiming to increase capacity, streamline new housing creation, and ensure more people can access suitable local placements with appropriate expertise at reasonable costs.
This detailed development plan concerns the transformation of Sätra centrum, where the old center will be demolished to make way for a more vibrant and safer square with approximately 500 new homes and businesses. The Skärholmen district administration supports the plan but requests further clarification on traffic safety, especially for children and school routes, desiring an updated traffic investigation and a flow map illustrating pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicle traffic on the new square.
The Skärholmen District Council has approved new instructions for the Skärholmen Youth Council, clarifying its purpose, mission, composition, and working methods. These instructions aim to empower young people in Skärholmen, aged 13-19, to influence decisions affecting them and strengthen local democracy.
Skärholmen district council reviewed elderly care, disability services, and social psychiatry for 2025, finding all nine operations have systems for quality assurance. Most elderly care units perform well, though a couple need to improve documentation, especially in healthcare and internal controls. Disability services and social psychiatry showed no deficiencies.
The Skärholmen District Council has decided that certain social services officials may request police assistance in cases involving involuntary care for substance abusers (LVM), involuntary care for young people (LVU), and placing children in protective housing. This allows the police to intervene when such decisions need to be enforced, for example, if a guardian opposes a decision for protective housing. This decision directly impacts children and individuals who may require police assistance in these situations.
The Skärholmen district administration projects a balanced budget for 2026, though with some hurdles. Child and youth care faces a deficit of SEK 1.8 million due to rising placement costs and an increase in welfare concerns, while economic assistance has a SEK 2.3 million shortfall as more households than anticipated require support, partly due to high unemployment and rents.
The City of Stockholm has developed a functional program for preschool premises to guide new constructions and renovations, aiming for a common standard to ensure facilities are appropriate, safe, and secure, with a focus on children's learning and educators' work environment. While the Skärholmen district administration supports the program, they emphasize that quality primarily stems from the interaction between educators and children, and they request clearer descriptions for accessible learning environments and storage solutions.
The City of Stockholm has developed an action plan to strengthen children's rights and influence until 2030, based on the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. This plan aims to counter discrimination, promote equal living conditions, and involves all committees and company boards. Its focus is on increasing city staff's knowledge of children's rights, improving information for children about their rights and city services, and giving children more influence in decisions affecting them.
