BERRI for fostering - identifying needs and improving outcomes
A free introduction to BERRI as a tool to identify needs and improve outcomes within fostering settings
BERRI is a clinical evaluation tool which uses an online questionnaire to help identify children’s psychological needs, provides a tailored report showing how to support the child, and lets you track how their needs change over time.
Suitable for children and young people from age 5 to 21, the comprehensive assessment covers five domains:
• Behaviour
• Emotional wellbeing
• Risk (to self and others)
• Relationships
• Indicators (of psychiatric or neurodevelopmental conditions)
Key benefits:
• BERRI makes the data immediately useful by creating detailed reports about the child, with interpretations from clinical psychologists, providing insight and saving you time
• BERRI has been normed on over 2500 children, including over 500 fostered children, meaning that it can compare any one child to these samples, giving a detailed profile of how their scores compare
• 86% of carers prefer working for an organisation that uses BERRI, as they feel heard and more supported in their role, suggesting BERRI can help with recruitment and retention of carers
• Placements using BERRI can evidence an average 9% improvement in children’s scores in first 100 days
• Access to consultations with clinical psychologists or specialist training
For a limited time, BERRI are offering NAFP members an exclusive discount of 25% off their first six months when using the code NAFP25.
