The purpose of this study is to provide knowledge about social services and women's shelter relate to and work with abused women during crises like Covid-19. The study is based on seven qualitative semiconstructed interviews with professional social workers and workers from women shelters on Gotland. The study shows that its difficult to come to a conclusion what the consequence for abused women have resulted in. The social services have experienced a challenge with a different way of practise and a closed society. Common for both social services and woman shelter is the worry about womens vulnerability. Rapports from the women shelter shows that more women requested aid while the social services states that they cannot see a distinct increase. There is no unambigious answer to if the abused women suffered more during the pandemic. It is only after the restrictions begin to disapear that it becomes clearer how Covid-19 has affected these women
