Barnes, Jacqueline and Melhuish, Ted and Guerra, J.C. and Karwowska-Struczyk, M. and Petrogiannis, K. and Wyslowska, O. and Zachrisson, H.D. (2017) Inter-agency coordination of services for children and families - initial literature review. Project Report. European Union Horizon 2020.

Abstract

Disadvantaged families living in poverty, especially those living in deprived neighborhoods where risks tend to accumulate, have diverse needs for support. Throughout Europe different models of service-coordination and integration exist, but a systematic overview of experiences and evidence on effectiveness is not available. The aim of this initial review is to: - identify facilitators and challenges at the interpersonal and at the structural-organizational level that are relevant to successful coordination, collaboration and integration of multiple services for young children (e.g. communication, case management, financial resources, policy measures); - identify models of working and domains for the development of a common framework; - summarize the potential impact of inter-agency working upon children, families and communities.
