Family Impact Group CIC was founded by Kristin, a psychology graduate and experienced practitioner working across SEND, SEMH, behavioural analysis and mental health systems.
Her professional background includes:
• Coordinating family wraparound support for complex SEND and SEMH presentations
• Assistant psychology work contributing to behavioural analysis and reporting
• Adult mental health and learning disability support
• One-to-one psychoeducational and behaviour change interventions
• Mental health assessment and referral within clinical pathways
This cross-system experience provides a deep understanding of how emotional distress, regulation difficulty and systemic pressure intersect when school attendance begins to deteriorate.
In addition to professional experience, Kristin brings lived insight as a parent navigating SEND systems and school breakdown. This dual perspective strengthens FIG’s ability to reduce parent–school conflict and rebuild collaborative containment.
Family Impact Group CIC was established to address the gap between internal school support and statutory escalation — delivering structured early intervention before situations reach crisis threshold.
About the founder.
Our Mission
We exist to stabilise education when it becomes emotionally driven rather than engagement-led.
Our work focuses on:
• Strengthening conditions for sustainable attendance
• Reducing parent–school conflict
• Protecting staff capacity
• Delivering structured, evidence-informed early intervention
• Supporting timely and informed decision-making
We believe early containment is more effective — and significantly less costly — than crisis response.
Our Framework & Approach
Family Impact Group CIC operates through the Family–School Stabilisation Framework™ — a structured, time-limited early intervention model.
Our work is grounded in the following principles:
• Behaviour is communication
• Regulation precedes engagement
• Pressure increases avoidance
• Families hold critical contextual knowledge
• Early intervention reduces escalation
Intervention is:
• Structured and time-limited
• Family-centred and non-judgemental
• Regulation-informed and behaviourally grounded
• Clear about scope and boundaries
• Focused on measurable shift and documented outcomes
Safeguarding & Professional Boundaries
Family Impact Group CIC operates in line with safeguarding legislation and statutory guidance.
The service is:
• Non-clinical
• Time-limited
• Preventative
• Structured
We do not provide therapy, diagnosis or long-term case management.
Where needs exceed the scope of early intervention, we support schools and families in identifying appropriate escalation pathways.
Clear boundaries ensure safe, ethical and effective practice.
Commissioning & Collaboration
Family Impact Group CIC is commissioned by schools and trusts seeking structured early intervention to reduce escalation risk and stabilise attendance.
If you are exploring support for a pupil at risk of breakdown or persistent absence, early stabilisation is often the most effective next step.
