About Fókus
Fókus is a rainbow-certified youth center celebrating diversity. It offers clubs and workshops like Sportó (sports), Bellanet (building girls' confidence), D&D club (role playing club) and Art Workshop club. We also organize trips for adolescents, with the ski trip being the largest. There's also an 8th grade trip each fall at the beginning of the school year. We also host sleepovers at the center, which are always exciting.

Child prosperity
The Act on the Integration of Services in the Interest of Children’s Prosperity has come into effect. The goal is to ensure children and guardians receive the right assistance, at the right time, from the right parties. Families and children in need of early support have guaranteed access to a prosperity contact in the child's immediate environment, such as in preschool or primary school. The prosperity contact offers information and guidance on services and ensures that children and guardians have unhindered access to these services. Children, youth, and guardians can reach the school prosperity contact to request integrated services.
Information on the prosperity contacts for children at the Fókus youth center can be found on the website of Ingunnarskóli.
