What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Adoption and SGO Services have embedded psychological perspectives and practice into the service delivery models and clinical psychology consultations have been a key component to this. Assessment and preparation, and post-placement support are processes required to consider multiple histories, stories, and dynamics - and Adoption / SGO support staff are tasked to hold these in mind, while also processing and predicting the interplay between these processes in coming to positions that promote and maintain the adoption / SGO.
