An exploration of the family partnership model in New Zealand

This report documents the project undertaken to explore the potential value of the Family Partnership Model (FPM) for New Zealand agencies and organisations that work with families in the community.

The FPM focuses on the process of establishing an effective working relationship with families and therefore has the potential to build the capacity of a diverse range of practitioners who work with families.

It is not a new initiative but adds value to existing services and programmes.
