520    Designed to meet a range of day care needs for individuals,
       families or wider communities, Family Centres are central 
       to the government's provision of effective child care 
       services. The study of family centres - monitoring their 
       objectives, examining key challenges faced and evaluating 
       approaches to practice - is fundamental to the delivery of
       effective, evidence-based services. This book details and 
       evaluates expert research into the developing role of 
       family centres in the light of current political and 
       social trends including, the Every Child Matters 
       legislation. It outlines the different user groups 
       serviced by family centres; the various combinations of 
       services provided and the contribution that these are 
       making to positive outcomes for children; major tasks 
       facing family centres such as optimising access to 
       services; and important partnerships between family 
       centres and other services such as education and health 
       care. Based on the evidence, the authors highlight key 
       messages for future development.; A vital addition to the 
       literature on child care services, "Improving Children's 
       Services Networks" is essential reading for social care 
       practitioners and students, government policy makers and 
       planners.
