Supporting Families Together

Training Available during January

Don't forget that there are a number of training courses coming up in January that staff and trustees working with children & young people should be attending.

They all support the Joint Assessment Family Framework (JAFF) which is made up of upto 3 stages:
  1. The Common Assessment Framework (CAF) form is the access or referral form completed by a practitioner with a parent/carer and the child, or young person.
  2.  The CAF goes to a multi-agency panel (The Local Resource Solution Panel) for discussion and solutions are agreed as part of a plan for the family.
  3.  A ‘Team Around the Family’ (or ‘Team Around the Young Person’ if they do not have family) meeting is then arranged involving those directly working with the child/young person/family to review, monitor and add to this plan.
Training is available which covers:

  • Common Assessment Framework and Local Resource Solution Panels - an introduction
  • Motivational Interviewing
  • Information Sharing to Support Integrated Working
  • Lead Practitioner: Team Around the Family & Local Resource Solution Panels


You will find the details of dates and venues for this training on the page: "Multi-Agency Integrated Working".
