Viljan Omsorg

What Viljan Omsorg does

Viljan Omsorg is a Swedish individual and family care provider operating as a brand within the publicly listed Attendo AB (publ) group. The company delivers commissioned social services to Swedish municipal socialtjänst under the Social Services Act (SoL) and the Care of Young Persons Act (LVU), spanning HVB treatment homes for adults and youth, foster and treatment families, protected housing, social psychiatry, supported housing, training apartments, and special-needs schools. Service lines include Viljan Sävik (adult men, Säter, founded 1994), Viljan Nävertorp HVB (adults, Katrineholm), Active Omsorg Rundelsgatan B-C (youth, Linköping), Tjust Behandlingsfamiljer (Västervik, Jönköping, Norrköping), Viljan Friskola and Viljan Barn- och ungdomsboende LSS (Västmanland), Viljan Träningslägenheter (Stockholm), and Broarp HVB and school (Småland).

The company's core "technology" is a proprietary methodology suite, not a software platform. It is anchored by Viljans färdighetsprogram (VFP), Viljan's own skill training program, and the Kälvestenmetoden for foster family assessment, supplemented by 26 evidence-based approaches including KBT, MI, LAB (Lågaffektivt bemötande), TMO (Traumamedveten omsorg), ACT, DBT, CRA, ASI, and rePULSE. A dedicated placeringsjour (placement coordination team) routes municipal case-handler requests to the appropriate facility, supported by regional offices and a nationwide single contact number.

Viljan's business model is exclusively public-sector commissioned services. All placements are initiated and funded by municipal social services; the company does not serve private-pay customers. Fees are negotiated contractually with municipalities, and foster family compensation follows SKR (Sveriges Kommuner och Regioner) recommendations, typically at or above the recommended levels. Revenue mechanics are therefore entirely tied to Swedish municipal socialtjänst commissioning volumes, with no disclosed pricing or contract terms. The company employs approximately 95 staff and is headquartered in Stockholm.
