The aim of social network interventions is to mobilise the private network (family, friends etc.) to support the individual in solving concrete practical and emotional problems.
Such interventions are tools for meeting the needs of support and help among an increasing growth of people experiencing loneliness, isolation and marginalisation.
Isolation and marginalisation are particularly frequent among long-term welfare recipients.
This study will explore how welfare recipients experience participating in a particular network intervention, as well as explore the function of this intervention in the context of the social services.
