Why you are here

Your AIM results have suggested "Working with the Professional Network" on the basis of scores in certain areas.

You will need to work out some priorities, as professional networks can be LARGE, and COMPLICATED and your time is unlikely to be limitless... you cannot work with every professional in a large network, and despite our best intentions it is rare for ALL the professionals in a large "team around the child" to be present at multi-agency meetings.

Useful links:

• Working with your NETWORKS is the main introductory page to this area of work, with links to all the various subtopics
• Addressing Dis-integration is the central AMBIT theme for this work
• The Dis-integration grid is the key TOOL for focusing this work on the most important parts of the network.
• The AMBIT Pro-Gram is another tool for mapping the professional network around a young person.
• Working with other professionals links to the specific practices or problems in working with professionals and other agencies, as opposed to wider social-ecological networks (informal, friends, youth groups, etc).
