The purpose of this study is to examine how social workers and police work to prevent juvenile delinquency, and how the cooperation between professional work functions to identify and support young people at risk of crime. Using a qualitative approach, we conducted interviews with six respondents with experience in preventive measures against juvenile delinquency. By identifying and addressing these factors, the professionals strive to tailor interventions and allocate resources to effectively meet the challenges that youth face. By integrating knowledge of risk and protective factors into their daily work, social workers and police aim to create a protective and preventive strategy to reduce juvenile delinquency and promote youth well-being. The study emphasizes the importance of identifying and understanding, in order to implement effective preventive measures and support to reduce the risk of juvenile delinquency. The study highlights the collaboration between social workers and police and emphasizes the importance of early interventions and relationships-building to prevent young people from engaging in criminal activities. With the help of the results, we gained an overall understanding of the working methods used by both social workers and police and the challenges that arose in preventive work.
