Action for Children's experience and successes in intensive family support
We
pioneered this holistic model of all-round support in 1995 in
Scotland, and have been learning and developing our services ever
since
Recent research, which looked at the lives of over 1000 families
after involvement with our projects between 2007 and 2009
recorded:
- 58% reduction in bad behaviour among young
people
- 64% reduction in anti-social behaviour
- 58% reduction in truancy and exclusion among
children
- 70% reduction in drug and substance
misuse
- 53% reduction in alcoholism
By taking into account each of the families' main issues we can
provide a range of supportive interventions which can improve the
lives of entire communities.
