  1. How our integrated working, co-location and CAF processes work in identifying and addressing child poverty VICTORIA PALLEN 9TH FEBRUARY 2012

  2. Integrated Working and ECM outcomes

  3. Integrated Working…… • Identifies needs earlier • Delivers a co-ordinated package of support for the child/young person • Helps to secure better outcomes

  4. Integrated Working involves… • Staged Intervention Model - The foundation for effective integrated locality working is the staged intervention model. Staged intervention is a process which enables services to plan to meet the needs of individual children and young people. Staged intervention should assist in clearly setting out what support is available and when it should be offered. • The Common Assessment Framework - a common approach and language to assess strengths and needs through 3 stages • Information Sharing - when and what to share • Lead Professional - can be any member of the children’s workforce, acts as a single point of contact for child/young person and family co-ordinating the delivery of actions by services involved in support.

  5. Integrated Working also involves… • Team around Child and Family - Professionals with expertise in the area of identified need work as a supportive team to collectively focus on meeting desired outcomes. • Children and Family panels - Two weekly multi-agency meetings to consider support packages for children and young people with identified complex needs. • Locality Partnership Boards - Providing governance and development of services which are community and locality focused. • Locality Information Sharing Network meetings - Frontline practitioners coming together on a monthly basis to facilitate “joined up” practices around schools and settings to address to local needs of the community. • Children’s Workforce Development Council - Encompasses vision and values of Integrated Working.
