Parents Talk about Familjecentralen
Developed by the Association for the Promotion of Family Centers in Sweden, this short video with English subtitles highlights the perspectives of parents who have participated in the Salem Familje Centralen near Stockholm, one of 300 such centers across the country. The centers are hubs of early, coordinated, and easily accessible support for families provided by professionals from multiple fields - health, mental health, and early child development - working collaboratively. Please note that the term "open preschool" refers to a drop-in playgroup.
