Trends in Social Services: Opinions of the Municipal Management in Smaller and Larger Municipalities

Original language description

Social services encompass a vast range of activities which gain importance as the population of developed countries continues to age significantly and becomes more and more diverse in increasing number of aspects. Increasing expenditures on social services strain the public budgets and in some countries, the municipalities are obliged to secure provision of social services for their citizens. The paper deals with municipal perceptions of the social services which are offered in their territories to various groups of social services clients. As per two stage survey the municipalities are moderately satisfied with the social services provided in their territory. Significant difference may be recorded among smaller and larger municipalities in which the first tend to perceive the social services provided in their territories as less sufficient, especially for the client groups of senior citizens, the disabled people and those recently released from prison. Small and larger municipalities alike are aware of the ageing of the population and in the future expect increase in demands for senior oriented social services which the small municipalities perceive as an issue to satisfactorily provide in future.
