Case study: Multi-agency panels
This case study is about how working with new partners helped to make a supported living home for boys and girls aged 16 + safer. Worries about the home came to light in a child protection meeting for 'Rosie' - a young person living there. Workers in the home thought that Rosie, and other young people living there, were being targeted by adults for criminal exploitation. So, children's social care decided to treat the home itself as a 'context of concern'. The response to the context happened alongside the individual work with Rosie.
This case study is an example of multi-agency panels working to make supported living safer for young people aged 16+.
