What happens after an Assessment of Need meeting?

Where a fourth application to the ASF is being considered the social worker, family and therapeutic provider will complete an Adoption Support Review Form. The membership of the panel includes professionals from Education, Health, Family Information Service, ACE, and Early Help Services.

The aim of the panel is to consider the impact of the therapy on your family and review the support to be provided to the you either through your own family and friends network, universal services, ACE or local authority Children’s Services or other services.

All unspent money will be returned at the end of the financial year to the ASF. The ASF is subject to change.
