From Ambition to Practice: Active implementation and Glasgow's Intensive Family Support Service

What does it take to turn an ambitious vision for whole-system change into effective, sustainable practice?

Join colleagues from Glasgow Health and Social Care Partnership and CELCIS to explore the development and implementation of Glasgow's Intensive Family Support Service (GIFSS), an innovate multi-agency partnership bringing together statutory and third-sector organisations to provide relationship-based, strengths-focused support to children and families.

Developed as part of Glasgow's wider transformation towards prevention and keeping families together, GIFSS offers a compelling example of how Active Implementation frameworks can help turn shared ambitions into practice.

Drawing on the experience of those involved, the webinar will explore approaches such as:

• defining usable innovations
• implementation drivers
• collaborative leadership

and how these have supported the development of a shared practice model, strengthened implementation capacity and enabled learning across organisational boundaries. 

The session will also consider the wider system conditions that made this work possible, offering practical insights for those seeking to implement and sustain meaningful change in complex, multi-agency environments.
