Early Help - Team Around the Family

When the MASH assessment indicates a low level of concern, but the child would benefit from support of two or more agencies, a Team Around the Family (TAF) might be identified to coordinate a plan for Early Help.

Team Around the Family

A Team Around the Child (TAF) is for children and families who might need a little extra support from professionals in order to achieve expected standards of health, education, development or welfare. The TAF is a group of people, including the child, family members and professionals, who will work together to support the child and family.

The TAF process is voluntary and is designed to bring all the relevant people together who will be able to decide what the child needs and how everyone will be able to work together to provide, monitor and evaluate this Early Help.
