New Financial Assistance Guidelines for Families and Children

The City Council adopted new guidelines for handling financial assistance in Stockholm, raising the standard for groceries and recreation for children and youth. The changes also introduce a summer allowance for children in families receiving long-term assistance, allow parents at Jobbtorg Stockholm to take four weeks of summer leave with continued support, and ensure that certain incomes like habilitation and apprentice benefits do not reduce assistance. Additionally, the guidelines emphasize increased attention to domestic violence and transactional sex.
