This guide is to support children’s and adults’ services in working together to develop joint protocols. It shows how to develop inter-agency protocols to support families in which parents have additional needs related to physical and/or sensory impairments, learning disabilities, mental health, drug and alcohol-related problems or serious illnesses. Protocols enable agencies to: agree on a common set of core principles; establish clarity about the respective roles and responsibilities of relevant agencies; agree and jointly own procedures for all stages of the relationship between families and agencies from referrals to assessments, to information-sharing, to planning, to service provision, to funding and to review; and ensure a joined-up approach to families’ needs through the commissioning process. The guide includes information on involving parents and case examples. [Previously published as SCIE Resource Guide no. 9].
