Purpose and classifications - Intervention - (Value)The essence of IAAM is to combine targeted family finding for harder to place children with specific support for parents adopting these children. The IAAM service is provide by six Voluntary Adoption Agencies (VAAs) operating across the country. Each Voluntary Adoption Agency (VAA) will be referred a child who has been seeking adoption on a spot-purchase basis by a local authority. The VAA will first task the South London and Maudsley Hospital with conducting a multidisciplinary assessment of the child and producing an authoritative report on the child's needs. For the child, the VAA will then provide a 24-hour helpline, buddying, and respite care whilst they attempt to find an adoptive family. Prospective parents are given training and support tailored to the needs of the child, as agreed by the commissioning local authority and the provider VAA.
