Getting It Right for Every Child (GIRFEC) is about making sure children, young people and families get the right help at the right time.

GIRFEC uses eight wellbeing indicators, known as SHANARRI, to help understand how you are doing. These are: Safe, Healthy, Achieving, Nurtured, Active, Respected, Responsible, and Included.

GIRFEC helps services work together and listen to you and your family so you can be involved in decisions about your life and receive the support you need.

GIRFEC supports Scotland's vision of The Promise, which aims for all children and young people to grow up loved, safe and respected and reach their full potential.

In North Lanarkshire, GIRFEC is also the foundation for family support services which can help you and your family to thrive.

The ALLIANCE have  produced a short, BSL friendly, explanation of GIRFEC which you can watch below:
