PARENTING INSIDE AND OUT TOOLKIT New publication
Bringing the outside in -Developing a family-based approach to supporting young parents in custody
Sarah Lindfield, Young people in focus

The Parenting – Inside and Out (PIO) project has focused on the development of family-based parenting support for under 18 year-old young fathers and mothers in custody. What we have found out from this project is mixed. There have been some very positive findings about what young parents want from parenting support and how this can be offered. This toolkit describes what we have found out during the project and we suggest ways of building on the positives we have found, as well as addressing some of the barriers.

Aims of the Toolkit
This Toolkit aims to assist colleagues in developing family-based parenting support involving:
  • Young fathers and young mothers in custody
  • Their parents/carers
  • The other young parent of their child
  • Other key parent supporters


We hope that the learning from this project will help support:
  • Secure establishments to `think parent’ and `think parenting in the whole family`
  • YOTs and the secure estate to provide parenting support to the family network
  • Agencies to reach `through the gate both ways to join up their services
  • Community-based agencies to deliver their services `inside’ establishments.
