Multi-agency working

The text below is taken from the Common Core of Skills and Knowledge for the children's workforce. You can also download a PDF version of the document.
 

Multi-agency working means different services, agencies, teams of professionals and other staff working together to provide services that meet the needs of children, young people, and their parents or carers.

To work successfully on a multi-agency basis it is important to be clear about one's role, and to be aware of the roles of other professionals. It is also crucial to be confident about one's standards and targets, and respectful of those that apply to other services; actively seeking and respecting other people's knowledge and input to deliver the best outcomes for children and young people. These behaviours should apply across the public, private and voluntary sectors.
