Northamptonshire Safeguarding Children Board includes imprisonment in the family as a key area to consider in their Early Help Assessment (EHA) procedure.
The EHA assessment form guides early help workers in asking questions around 'The Family Journey' with imprisonment explicitly stated as an area to ask families about in terms of difficult situations that could be affecting them.
See the attached EHA form for an example of how to incorporate familial imprisonment into your service's assessment procedure.
