Families can face a wide range of difficulties at times, sometimes the problems are complicated and extra help may be needed.
Where there are children within the family, it may be useful to hold a family meeting, which is a safe space where everyone can talk through concerns, then come up with a plan to make things better for everyone. A coordinator will encourage your participation, but the process is voluntary.
The whole process from referral to meeting should take around 4 to 6 weeks, but urgent family meetings can be organised if needed.
