Abstract: The Family Network Pilot (FNP), funded by the Department for Education (DfE) aims to support children to remain safely within their extended family and prevent children going into care. It does so by offering Family Group Conferences (FGCs) and Family Network Support Packages (FNSPs) to families at the pre-proceedings (PLO) stage. This report presents findings from an Implementation and Process Evaluation (IPE) and Impact Evaluation of this pilot conducted across seven local authorities over three phases of qualitative research with local authority strategic and delivery stakeholders, as well as analysis of local authorities' monitoring data. [This report was produced with Alma Economics and the National Children's Bureau.]
