Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book details how the landscape for children's services has changed over the last ten years (2008--2018) and what these changes entail for the organizations that deliver early intervention services for children and their families. Body and Lehane offer insight into the key debates about how the relationship between the state and voluntary sector is managed, the rationale and impact of social policy decisions in early intervention provision, and the governance of authority and accountability within services for children and families. Drawing on both recent policy and research, Children and Charities critically assesses assertions about the purpose and role of the voluntary sector in the provision of early intervention and prevention.
