Troubled Families and Young People: Online Hotseat with Robert McCulloch-Graham from the Troubled Families Unit
10 October 2012
We recently conducted some research and held an event to explore the role of youth work in the troubled families agenda. Our findings showed that youth work has a valuable role to play in the troubled families agenda and that youth workers are already making a difference by working with young people from troubled families. At our event, Robert McCulloch-Graham from the government’s Troubled Families Unit spoke about the Troubled Families Programme and discussed the various ways in which youth services could be involved. To enable further discussion and open this debate out to the sector, Robert has kindly agreed to host a hotseat – an online questions and answer session on the Knowledge Hub.
This is a unique opportunity to put your questions on troubled families directly to Robert and we are keen to enable as many as possible to take part.
