Meaning of the Child
Book Launch and Panel Discussion
Join us for the launch of “Meaning of the Child” book followed by a lively panel discussion and Q&A session on its themes and impact.

The Meaning of the child interview is used extensively in assessment and intervention planning for children and families involved in the care system both in Ireland, the UK and Internationally.
This unique event and book launch will give attendees the opportunity to engage in a lively information session and panel discussion on its utilisation in an Irish context.
