Abstract:
In both parts of Ireland over the last decade there has been a growing commitment to family support. This has been expressed in both policy and practice. This paper summarises the learning from that development and suggests there is now sufficient understanding and experience to allow for a strategically managed approach based on a planning cycle of legislation based policy choice, planning, service delivery, monitoring and evaluation.
