Abstract

A qualitative survey of social workers was carried out to find out their experiences of cooperation between social workers in disability services and child protection aftercare. The survey was intended for licensed and substitute social workers who have had clients who are young adults with both disability services and aftercare services. In addition to background questions, the survey includes six open-ended questions and space for additional questions or feedback.

Background information includes the respondent's educational background, as well as information on the respondent's work experience and customer numbers. The data were organised into an easy to use HTML version at FSD.
