In Sweden, a distressing social issue is coming to light as at least 9,400 children live with the reality that one of their parents is homeless.

With a total of over 27,000 adults without a permanent residence, the problem of homelessness is more pervasive than ever.

Despite the efforts in cities like Gothenburg and Malm�, which have seen a decrease in homelessness thanks to proactive social services, the country is facing significant financial strain.

Local governments are bracing for budget cuts with a forecasted collective deficit of 30 billion SEK, and there is no expectation of support from the national government.

As a result, programs aimed at preventing homelessness are likely to be among the first to suffer, potentially leaving even more children without a home.

This issue raises serious questions about political priorities and the government's commitment to addressing the needs of its most vulnerable citizens.
