YorOK Involvement Work
It is the right of children, young people and families to be involved in planning, design, delivery and evaluation of services (see UN Convention Rights of Child). It is the responsibility of services and workers to ensure that this involvement can take place. York’s involvement strategy sets out the principles for this work as well as identifying priorities for 2008-11. Click here to download the strategy.
