Early help
In Lincolnshire we believe early help is a collaborative approach, not a provision. Every professional working with or engaging with children and families, regardless of organisation, status or position has a responsibility to deliver early help and support the family to access appropriate services.
Early help is defined as anything that supports children, young people and their families to achieve their potential, by either preventing difficulties, or stopping things getting worse. You may be contacted by a professional to explore an early help assessment.
For further information, assessment process and resources please visit Lincolnshire Safeguarding Children Partnership.
