Children, young people and families

We provide a wide range of services for children and their families, and we help and support families in many different circumstances.

These may include families who are having difficulties with their children, children in trouble with the law, children with disabilities, and children who need protection from abuse. We also provide help regarding keeping children safe.

In the first instance we meet with children and families to do an assessment to find out what support they need. What are assessments?

Where necessary we work with other organisations to co-ordinate our efforts, to make sure children and families receive the best and most complete service.
