The article follows a practical experience of social work with families at risk during the quarantine period. The COVID situation presented both social workers and families with new risks and challenges. We describe the situation from the social organizations' point of view –their social workers, and governmental social workers. The next part is about the experience in different social services and the impact of on-line schooling on families. Following this, we present an insight into the teams of social workers, their management of this crisis and their work management and planning. This is based on our experiences and basic research on governmental and social organizations.
