ECEN Specialist Participant sit on the sub-groups under the Health and Well-being Board Thematic Action Group (the health partnership boards), the four Children's Area Partnerships (CAPs) and the Children's Trust Executive Group. The CAPs and the Children's Trust Executive Group feed into the Children's Trust Board Thematic Action Group.
The role of the ECEN Specialist Participant is to put forward a voluntary and community sector perspective, at the meetings of these bodies, and to ensure that the voices of under-represented groups do not go unheard. As such ECEN Specialist Participants act as the partnerships' or partnership boards' guides on matters that affect the voluntary sector and as expert witnesses on issues that affect those members of the community that the partnership board and/or children's area partnership is required to support and protect.
In addition, ECEN Specialist Participants work together with ECEN elected representatives on the Health and Well-being Board Thematic Action Group and the Children's Trust Board Thematic Action Group to ensure that there is a two-way flow of information between them.
Unlike elected ECEN representatives ECEN Specialist (ES) Participants are selected against a set criteria based on the skills and knowledge required to act as an ES Participant on the health partnership boards, Children's Trust Executive Group, children's area partnerships and/or the Edmonton Partnership. An ES Participant Selection Panel shortlists the applications and meets with those that are shortlisted.
Information about the role of an ES Participant and the selection process can be found in the ECEN Specialist Participation Selection Information Pack. For an easy-read summary of the pack, please click here.
