This document contains a poster and two page briefing about children and families affected by parental offending and how NICCO can assist Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) and the National Probation Service (NPS) professionals to support them.
The briefing summarises some of the key outcomes for these families, and highlights the importance of CRC and NPS professionals considering children and families in their supervision of offenders. CRC and NPS professionals supervise a range of offenders in the community and whilst they are still serving a custodial sentence, and it is important to consider whole family outcomes as this is likely to be beneficial for both offenders, their children and their families. The briefing highlights how NICCO can help CRCs and the NPS to provide support and information to offenders who are parents, and their children and families. The poster and briefing include direct quotes from families and examples of practice.
