This study aims to examine aspects related to children who were taken into custody by the Child Welfare Council in the city of Kalmar, as well as the countryside communities of Dörby and Arby, during the years 1926-1931 and 1946-1951. The study highlights the social vulnerability that followed and the circumstances in which the children and parents found themselves in, which influenced their placement. It investigates the work of the Child Welfare Council, as well as the individuals or groups who reported and/or cared for the children. By analysing the board meetings held by the Child Welfare Council, a picture of how the changes in foster care in Kalmar, Dörby and Arby has developed will take place. The study has shown that these locations followed the general development in Sweden during the 20th century.
