The purpose of the project has been to investigate how different Nordic welfare services in cooperation across sectors create participation and change for young adults with mental health problems. Partnerships and co-production across welfare sectors have become a popular policy discourse and a prescription for many professionals across a wide range of public services. Within the area of mental health services, it has been suggested that the support should
be designed more around the need of the users than around professional concerns. A more active involvement of users and other civil players in the care is regarded as a fundamental contributor to this process. However, there is still
a lack of empirical studies investigating practices where professionals, volunteers and young adults with mental health problems collaborate
and interact in everyday activities. This report is a contribution to this gap in the literature.
