Abstract [en]

The aim of this study was to analyze hos social services work to provide support to women who have experienced violence. The study is based on a qualitative methodology using semi-structured interviews to capture the participants' experiences. The sampling was conducted using snowball sampling and convenience sampling methods, gathering data from four social workers and one processor. The study's empirical data was analyzed from the perspectives of systems theory, empowerment, intersectional perspective, and the theoretical concept of collaboration. The results of the study highlight significant shortcomings in the social services ability to identify and support women who are victims of violence, despite increased knowledge and awareness of the various forms of violence. The results demonstrate how the work of social services with women who have experience violence is shaped by an interplay of organizational, structural and individual conditions. The finding emphasizes how support for women who have experienced violence can be enhanced by increased resources, improved competence, and stronger collaboration between relevant stakeholders.
