PERHEPIRKKO supports and facilitates child welfare
“What do you hope for the future of your family?”
“How else could you approach this?”
“Would you be comfortable with…?”
Systemic child welfare is based on respectful encounters between the employees and the children and their families. These encounters build relationships and trust, which can, at best, generate significant positive changes in the lives of children, adolescents and families.
The welfare of children and their immediate family depends largely on interpersonal relationships. The background and experiences of the children and their immediate family can also affect their daily lives in various ways. Therefore, it is important to examine these issues together.
PERHEPIRKKO® is a digital aid and collaboration tool for systemic, relationship-based work.
