This session will help professionals to understand the intersection between immigration and social care when assessing and meeting the needs of children living within families that have no recourse to public funds. It will empower social workers to confidently enact legislation that enables vital support to be provided to destitute families who cannot access mainstream benefits to meet a child's welfare needs. It will also provide practical information on how to effectively manage high-cost accommodation and subsistence spending.
