Improving Lives: Helping Workless Families - A Policy Paper

5/4/2017

It's welcome news that the government recognises parental conflict as a key factor contributing to the long term detrimental impact on children’s development and reduced chances in education.

Analysis by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) released on April 4 says parental conflict directly contributes to joblessness which can only be tackled by collectively helping families.

The DWP’s new policy will see £30m going into a programme to help parents.

That agenda links with our own at Community Family Care.

Let’s hope the money goes where it’s most needed and can be used most effectively.


​Here’s a link to the full report:
