Family Welfare and Social Support
Caseworker-led support for families in crisis, including financial help, counseling referrals and links to other services.
Crises rarely come one at a time. The death of an earner, a long illness or a separation can bring several problems at once. Caseworkers sit down with families, understand their situation as a whole and agree a practical plan with them.
Every person is treated as a partner in their own plan. Families decide what is shared and with whom, unless there is a safeguarding duty to act.
Objectives
- Provide a named caseworker for families in crisis
- Offer time-limited financial support based on assessed need
- Refer to counseling, legal and social services
- Follow up until the family is on steadier ground
