1. Introduction
Welcome to the first of SCIE's e-learning resources on children of prisoners.
Please note that SCIE has published a further two resources on the topic of children of prisoners:
SCIE e-learning resource (2008) 'Children of Prisoners: an introductionThis resource provides information on the characteristics and common experiences of children of prisoners and allows you to test your knowledge of basic facts and figures.
SCIE e-learning resource (2008) 'Approaches to practice with children of prisoners'This resource presents you with six scenarios that may face the range of professionals working with children of prisoners. You will receive feedback on your answers that may help you reflect on new approaches to working with children of prisoners, key resources available to you and how you might develop your own practice.
Links to both can be found in the Extra resources section.
