West Sussex County Council: ContactPoint directory

ContactPoint is a national, online directory to help support children and young people and keep them safe. It is part of the government programme 'Every Child Matters'.

It is designed to help professionals who work with children, such as doctors, teachers, social workers and police find out who else is working with a child or young person. This will help them to work together as a team to provide the right support at the right time.

ContactPoint is being introduced in West Sussex during 2009/2010.
