IMPORTANCE OF EARLY INTERVENTION IN SAFEGUARDING
WHAT IS EARLY INTERVENTION?
Early Intervention is vital in the safeguarding of children, young people and vulnerable adults. In a time of shrinking budgets and increasing demand, early intervention promotes welfare, safety, development and societal stability at a huge cost saving. It also plays a part in preventing problems developing later, and goes a long way in attempting to rectify those which have already begun to manifest. Early Intervention it is at the heart of Working Together to Safeguard Children 2015.
When we think of identifying early problems for an individual or a family we can be guilty of working to a process, following guidelines and managing the issue without understanding the bigger picture. This isn’t uncommon in scenarios which offer a repeat of the same low-level issue in many daily scenarios.
