Family support for children and families affected by imprisonment - A handbook for Families First services in Wales

This handbook is a practical resource to help Families First services in Wales support children and their families affected by imprisonment.

 

Families First, with their combination of universal and targeted services, their base in the community, and their potential for early intervention are a key resource for meeting the needs of this group. This handbook provides practical guidance and suggestions on how Families First services can develop their reach to, and practice with, these children and families. It covers the policy context, gives examples of good inclusive practice and provides a checklist to help Families First services ensure they are doing everything possible to support this vulnerable group. There is also a list of provides resources and support organisations. There is also a Cymru version which will be available soon.
