This seminar is an opportunity for colleagues in public health, early years, social care and the third sector to take stock and consider how Integrated Child and Family Health Services can be redesigned and commissioned to provide early intervention and preventative services.

It is also an opportune time to consider what Integrated Child and Family Health services could mean for children and families to lead to better support and outcomes.

​

The event will:

​

• Highlight how ICSs can develop truly integrated Child and Family Health Services that improve outcomes and reduce inequalities for children and families

• Share exemplars from Integrated Child and Family Health models of innovation and excellence

• Inspire system leaders to think and work differently

 

Delegates will:

 

• Hear from system leaders in health and early years services about latest priorities for Integrated Child and Family Health

• Gain knowledge and insights into three Integrated Child and Family Health models of innovation and excellence

The event will highlight how collaboration, partnerships and integrated working can effect change to better meet the needs of and improve outcomes for children and their families.
