We evaluate each referral individually, considering the needs of families who are already undertaking their assessment. A careful matching process ensures that all families have the best chance of success.
We undertake assessments with parents who have multiple and complex needs, which may include:
Parents who are themselves children, looked after children and care leavers.
Parents who have experienced domestic abuse
Parents with current or past drug and/or alcohol-related issues
Parents who may have had older children removed from their care
Parents with presenting mental health concerns and are engaging with mental health services
Parents with mild learning difficulties
We consider each referral on individual merits and reserve the right to refuse to offer an assessment.
