Family Group Decision Making

Family Group Decision Making is a facilitated, confidential meeting between family members, friends and professionals. It is designed to provide an environment where the hearts and minds of concerned and knowledgeable individuals are able to examine and prioritize the needs of a child's health, safety and well-being.

A trained facilitator will help to organize and direct the meeting, but he/she will not make any decisions about the family's plan.
