Framework for the Assessment of Children in Need and their Families

The Framework for the Assessment of Children in Need and their Families is a structured guideline used by professionals to understand a child's well-being and circumstances. It helps assess whether a child’s development is healthy and if they need additional support or protection. The framework considers factors like health, education, emotional well-being, and family environment. Its goal is to identify children who may be at risk and ensure they receive appropriate help, working collaboratively with families to promote safe, stable, and nurturing conditions for the child's growth and development.
