Children in need and child protection
What do the people of Stockton-on-Tees need?
Stockton-on-Tees has a wider mix of needs as the main reasons for children and young people needing support compared to other areas, suggesting local families may be facing higher levels of pressure, such as challenges with housing, money worries, or parental mental health. Embedding our Systemic Practice model for professionals working with families will support a preventative, relational and strengths-based way of working, better identifying and addressing the underlying conditions that affect family wellbeing.
