Ny lag hotar Fontänhuset i Falun

Ett nytt aktivitetskrav i socialtjänstlagen som träder i kraft den 1 juli riskerar att påverka Fontänhuset i Falun. Verksamheten som bygger på frivillighet kan få svårt att godkännas.

Det nya lagkravet innebär att kommunen kan kräva att personer med försörjningsstöd deltar i en verksamhet. Fontänhuset hjälper människor med psykisk ohälsa tillbaka till studier och arbete.

Verksamhetsledare Linda Haglund varnar för att flera medlemmar då inte kommer att komma till Fontänhuset längre. Hon ser samtidigt möjligheter till samverkan kring de personer som kravet kommer att gälla.

Fontänhuset i Falun har framgångsrikt stöttat personer med psykisk ohälsa.
