We are a growing team of independent social workers. We model best practice in assessment, ensuring strengths and risks are clear and understood. We partner with parents and encourage children, where appropriate, to participate in creative direct work and capture this using imagery and analysis. We summarise goals, aims and expectations without use of jargon and in ways that make sense to families. Our expectations are realistic and our assessments, risk sensible.
A trust building approach is what children and families need. This typically achieves better outcomes for children as highlighted within research. At Accolade Families, children are always kept in mind and at the centre.
We see parents as partners, working in collaboration to develop the necessary skills, knowledge and motivation to demonstrate change. Change within families is possible and that with the right intervention, change can be long lasting.
