This document contains a poster and two page briefing about children and families affected by parental offending and how NICCO can assist Troubled Families professionals to support them.
The briefing summarises some of the key outcomes for these families, and highlights the importance of Troubled Families teams having an understanding of this issue and the ability to provide support for families in this situation. It is likely that many families already engaged in the Troubled Families programme will be affected by parental offending and imprisonment, and the introduction of new criteria in Phase 2 of the programme means that teams may be working with even more of these families. The briefing highlights how NICCO can help Troubled Families teams to provide support and information to children and families affected by parental imprisonment. The poster and briefing include direct quotes from families and examples of practice.
