Direct work with children, young people, and families

One of the underpinning components of the ST*R Partnership Practice Model is direct work. This can look like anything from a conversation with a child, young person, or member of their family, observations of the child, or of interactions between the child and others (including family members), or doing specific pieces of work with a child, young person, or their family members.

Below is a list of useful websites that can assist you with completing specific direct work tasks with children, young people and families;
