Think Local Act Personal

When family members are invited to get together to make a plan to support and protect a child or adult who is at risk of abuse or neglect. Families can choose whether or not they wish to take part in this process, and are helped by an independent person. The aim is to make it possible for families to problem-solve, and to avoid blaming anyone.
