Details

This is an Ofsted and Care Quality Commission survey report. It looks at how well adult mental health and drug and alcohol services and children’s services work together to ensure that children affected by their parents’ or carers’ mental ill health and/or drug and alcohol problems are supported and safe.

The report draws on evidence from cases in 9 local authorities and partner agencies and from the views of parents, carers, children, practitioners and managers.
