The Projects • Families together: New approach to supporting families who have the most needs resulting in greatest demand on public services (Project Lead – Carly Brown) • Early support: Developing the case for joined up early support primarily at levels 2 & 3 on the continuum of need. Priority emerging for focus on -9 months to 5 years (Project Lead - Val Sturgess)

  6. The Case for Change • Emphasis on Early Support , Foundation 0-5 (Marmot, Allen, Tickell, Field) • Troubled Families • Transformed Service Models e.g. Health Visitors • Sustainability in context of contracting budgets

  7. The Case for Change • Latest Health profile for CW&C (March 2012) indicates a number of issues where performance is significantly below the England average e.g. • Children achieving a good rate of development aged 5 (with respect to the Early Years Foundation Stage Profile) • Teenage mothers (age under 18 years) • Hospital admissions due to alcohol specific conditions  • Estimated 525 Troubled Families in West Cheshire footprint (CLG) with direct costs to the public purse of £39.4 million

  8. Where do we want to be? (October) • Route map for improvement to priority outcomes: • As-is analysis (cost, quality, customer experience) • Integrated delivery models tackling root causes • New approaches to delivery • Evidence based interventions at scale • Cashable savings route map/Joint Investment Agreement • Decommissioning plan • Clear pathways for levels 1 to 4 on Continuum of Need (step up, step down) • Effective multi-agency governance and commissioning arrangements

  9. ‘Families Together’ • Consolidate approaches and governance - DCLG Troubled Families - ESF /DWP Complex Families - DOH Multi Systemic Therapy (MST) • Advocate the need for whole system reform • Integrate the myriad of ‘People’ initiatives to improve service delivery • Develop a ‘core offer’ of support and unlock potential within families

  10. Families Together - Concept • The development of a ‘Families Together’ pledge • Partners who commit services as part of the pledge – prioritisation & responsiveness • A core offer of services with the agility to tailor • 24/7 provision to meet customer need • Personalisation • A family assessment rather than individual or multiple assessments

  11. What does ‘success’ look like… • Families know how to access appropriate services at the right time • Families live a housing of ‘good’ condition • Families demonstrate and respect neighbourly qualities – participation in the community • Families make positive lifestyle choices • Children brought up in a warm, stable supportive parental environment • Children meet age appropriate development indicators • Strong financial literacy, awareness and not dependent on benefits • Adults are work ready for local industries/markets • Minimal interventions from agencies outside of the core offer

  12. What constitutes an eligible ‘family’… • A household that has dependent(s) up to the age of 19 (subject to exceptional circumstances) • A family that is experiencing difficulties in achieving 3 or more of the determinants of success and; • A family that is referred through partnership channels that cause disruption to their communities

  13. How can we identify families that require help… • DCLG Troubled Families Unit Figures correlated with ‘local’ analysis • ‘Bottom Up’ referrals generated from ESF / DWP Families process and other existing referral processes • A Partner Conference • Local discretion

  14. Families Together - the offer • A menu of support options / interventions for our Key Workers and Families to ‘contract’ to • One Key Worker: One Family • A customised, 6 month, Family Action Plan • Five key areas they want to improve with inspired targets • A Celebration of Achievement designed by the Family for the Family

  15. Families Together – delivery • Integrated and co-located teams in the 4 new localities supported by the Area Head of Service • Performance, intelligence and support centrally provided • A strong, unique Team Identity • A single assessment and referral process appropriately branded

  16. So where do we start???

  17. Families Together – what are we trying to answer? Who are our families? - Service data - Local knowledge - Cross matching Building the evidence base for Joint Investment Which agencies spend and gain? Distribution? Which Families? ‘shared cohort’ Costs /benefits of a new delivery model? How are we working with them now? Outputs? Outcomes? Behavioural change? Neighbourhood effects? Impact on services/staff? ‘Whole system’ view Planned services? Reactive response? Assessments? Coordination? 1 year timeline/ usage pattern? What and who is it costing? What impact is this having? Planned Service costs? Reactive Service costs? Wider system/support costs? Wider/Long term costs? Distribution? Outputs? Outcomes? Behavioural change? Neighbourhood effects? Impact on services/staff?

Family I/D & Referral 3.Assessments & baselines 4. Family plans & coordination 6. Performance, Evaluation and Cost Benefit Analysis

  19. Mobilisation Plan • One single action plan to enable the programme to be effective • One ‘route map’ referencing collective and key milestones • One assessment process • One evidence base • One ambition to do something different

  20. Programme Governance Public Services Board Operational Steering Group Starting Well Thematic Group Families Together Board Work stream 1 Multi Systemic Therapy ESF Complex Families Early Support Work stream 2 Work stream 3
