The ASP project is rooted in the social efforts that are carried out in day-care centres and residential institutions in relation to socially endangered children and youth. The project focuses on identifying those social pedagogical interventions that show a positive effect in relation to achieving the objectives set out for pedagogical work with socially endangered children and youth.
Early interventions in relation to socially endangered children and youth can strengthen their life opportunities. The project aims to identify 'best practice' interventions in relation to overcoming the negative social heritage and improving the action competencies of socially endangered children and youth. The surveys will be conducted in day-care centres that practice early intervention and in residential institutions for children placed outside their homes.
The project is funded by the National Strategic Program for Welfare Research and has been carried out in the period from October 2005 to May 2009.
