Seasons greetings!

CCInform has had a really positive year, thank you to everyone who has piloted the site over the summer months and to CAFCASS and the Met who are piloting the service at the moment. We are really looking forward to 2008 and watching the website reach its full potential, offering users a one-stop-shop for all your information needs. We have now added a new "guide to..." tab to the main content types. This is a really great development, and will serve as another level of practical guidance for pratitioners in their working lives. Over the past couple of weeks we have published: Reference Manuals: - Information sharing and data protection - Interviewing children for the purposes of child protection investigations Guide to...: - Guide to depression - Guide to therapeutic assistance for children and young people recovering from sexual abuse - Guide to working with gangs and other delinquent groups - The impact of loss and bereavement on children Research review: - Breastfeeding and substance misuse - Females who sexually abuse children and young people From all of us on the CCInform team, we wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy new year!
