MCWNN 2008: Interagency Cooperation: Collaboration as Best Practice

Delivered at the Second National MCWNN Forum at Chicago Bar Association, Chicago, IL (April 2008)

Participants discussed case scenarios, provided by International Social Service – USA and Bridging Refugee Youth and Children’s Services, that involve an essential interagency component. Case examples included refugee or asylum applications, family reunification, intercountry custody and home-study issues. The cases involved individuals or families in need of a range of resources from a wide variety of agencies. Specific attention was given to how agencies can collaborate with each other across disciplines to resolve complex cross-border issues.
