Designed to meet a range of day care needs for individuals,
families or wider communities, Family Centres are central to the
government's provision of effective child care services. The study
of family centres - monitoring their objectives, examining key
challenges faced and evaluating approaches to practice - is
fundamental to the delivery of effective, evidence-based services.
This book details and evaluates expert research into the developing
role of family centres in the light of current political and social
trends including, the Every Child Matters legislation. It outlines
the different user groups serviced by family centres; the various
combinations of services provided and the contribution that these
are making to positive outcomes for children; major tasks facing
family centres such as optimising access to services; and important
partnerships between family centres and other services such as
education and health care. Based on the evidence, the authors
highlight key messages for future development. A vital addition to
the literature on child care services, Improving Children's
Services Networks is essential reading for social care
practitioners and students, government policy makers and planners.
