Answer a survey on violence in close relationships

We are conducting a survey on the experiences of violence in close relationships among Helsinki residents aged 18 and over. You can respond to the survey anonymously until 9 October 2026. Every response helps us develop services and strengthen support for all those affected by violence and their loved ones.

Support after adoption

Post-adoption services provide support in various situations after adoption.

Post-adoption services are intended for children adopted through the City of Helsinki and their guardians, adult adoptees and their descendants, and those who have given their children up for adoption.

Post-adoption services are free of charge in Finland.

You can seek post-adoption services if you are thinking about your roots, background and identity or planning a trip to your country of birth.

In post-adoption services, we can also view your personal adoption information in the archive together.
