Shilan Khadiri
Social worker specialised in child and youth careA decade of hands-on practice in child protection, safety planning and family treatment always guided by Signs of Safety and the belief that families hold real strength when given the right support.
Dedicated to child & family welfare
My name is Shilan Khadiri, and I have a solid background in social work, with a particular focus on children and young people in vulnerable situations. After completing the Social Work programme at Örebro University (2010–2013), I furthered my training in Signs of Safety (SofS), as well as in working with children exposed to threats or violence in close relationships. My experience spans over a decade of practical work within social services, particularly in matters concerning child protection and LVU.
My experience and expertise in Signs of Safety mean I always work from a solutionfocused, collaborative methodology one where the child's network and the family's own resources are included as a central part of every investigation and intervention.
