A Study of Family Involvement in Case Reviews: Messages for Policy and Practice - UK

BASPCAN commissioned a study of family involvement in the inter-agency reviews that occur when a child has died or been seriously injured as a result of abuse or neglect. This study was launched in 2012 by BASPCAN and University of Nottingham.  

As the United Kingdom's leading organisation for child protection professionals from a wide range of disciplines, BASPCAN Trustees were concerned that, despite policy imperatives, involving families in case reviews has been largely absent, inconsistent or tokenistic.  

This study, carried out by leaders in the field, involved families, practitioners, academics and policymakers and will have practical importance to those commissioning and conducting reviews, as well as those currently considering their future form and function. 

The Study is available as a wire bound copy at the special rate of £15 inc p & p.
