The government program was re-established in December and the same wording remained. In November, the [https://stm.fi/en/frontpage Ministry of Social Affairs and Health ] and the [https://thl.fi/en/main-page Finnish Institute for Health and Welfare ] published a new action plan named "Non-violent Childhood" with reference to the government program.
