On-line database

Statistics are published in the StatBank Denmark in the section Udsatte børn og unge (Children and youth at risk) in the following tables (Please note that the terms effort and measure are identical in the following description):

Preventive measures - ISBU01: Total number of active measures in a given reference year, classified by municipality and type of measure. Period 2015-2022 - ISBU02: Children and young people, who have received one or several measures, during a given reference year, classified by municipality and type of measure. Period 2015-2022. Each child or a young person is calculated as only one case in the summary of total national figures, even though a child, or a young person, can receive one or several preventive measures, during the year. A person can also appear in several municipalities and several measures simultaneously - such cases are presented as only one case per municipality and per type of measure.
- ISBU03: Initiated measures, during a given reference year, classified by province and group of measure. Period 2015-2022. - ISBU04: Active measures per 31th of December of a reference year, classified by province, group of measure, age and sex. Period 2015-2022.

Preventive measures have previously been published in the statistical table BUFF01, which has been discontinued. The new table, ISBU04, is most similar to the discontinued BUF01 table.

Preventive measures and placements in out-of-home care

  • BU04A: Support to children and young people per 31st December (net statement) by region, measure, age and sex. Period 2011-2022.
  • BU43: Children and young people who receive support per 31st December (share of 0-22-year-olds) by region, measure, age and sex. Period 2015-2022. Each child or a young person is listed as only one case in the total category (total number of disadvantaged children and young people). Furthermore, in the calculation of this statistical table, the same criteria, described for ISBU02, has been used regarding the number of persons/cases, with preventive measures.

Public expenditures in connection to preventive measures for children and young people

The indicator is published in StatBank Udsatte børn og unge in the table - BU28: Public net expenditures for disadvantaged children and young people classified by type of measure
