## Description

Warwickshire County Council has been selected as one of seven Local Authorities to participate in Wave 2 of the Families First for Children Pathfinder Programme\.

All local authorities are expected to implement the recommendations by 2027 and by becoming a pathfinder, Warwickshire County Council are going to be at the forefront of these once in a lifetime reforms\. The Pathfinder Programme vision is to rebalance children's social care away from costly crisis intervention to more meaningful and effective early support\.
