Whole Family Support Service

The Whole Family Support Service is a partnership between West Lothian Council and several local Voluntary sector agencies. The service provides intensive support for families in West Lothian who have multiple and complex needs.

The project works holistically with families, supporting all members of the family's needs. The service aims to support families to improve their circumstances, develop their skills, access support at the point of need and build resilience so that children can remain safely within their own family and have their development needs fully met. 

Families are allocated a keyworker who will use a Family Intervention approach which is evidence based and has been proven to successfully assist families to effect positive and sustainable change. Families receive up to 9 hours of support per week for 6 to 12 months. The team operate both within and outwith office hours including early mornings, evenings and weekends.

Referrals can be made from any agency and are discussed at a screening group every two weeks.

For further information please see attached leaflets.
