‘Developing a Family Safer Caring Plan’ is an e-book authored by Paul Adams, designed to help social workers and foster carers complete and update high-quality family safer caring plans.  The book emphasises the importance of creating plans that are individualised and ‘risk-sensible’, and contains a number of real-life practice examples. It comes with an accompanying template; Form FSCP. 

The book is available as a pdf document, which can be accessed on most personal computers and devices, and also as an e-pub document, that potentially offers a better reading experience on a number of tablets and e-readers. The accompanying Form FSCP is provided as a pdf document (with type-in boxes) and also as a word document.

The Nationwide Association of Fostering Providers (NAFP) has purchased unlimited use of this e-book and the accompanying form for the use of their members, and these materials are available through the secure area of the NAFP website. 

The Fairer Fostering Partnership (FFP) has also purchased unlimited use of the materials for their members. The contact address for FFP members to access these materials is info@fairerfostering.org.uk
