Children's Action Teams (CATs) are local multi-professional teams providing help, guidance and support, working together with families and communities to create and achieve positive change for Reading's children and young people. We have three teams; North, South/East and West.
They work closely with schools and other services to provide family-centred support that meets a variety of needs. This can be single or multiple issues arising from the child's education, their health or other significant areas of their family life.
Professionals within a CAT are:
-
Education Welfare
Family Workers
Youth Workers
Parenting Service
