What is Thriving Families?

Thriving families supports families with children over five experiencing neglect or emotional abuse, with family needs including domestic abuse and/or mental health and/or substance misuse. The programme takes a whole family approach to ensure that their family plan builds on their strengths and protective factors, and support in addressing the vulnerabilities that the family may be facing. We work in partnership with families to identify the family’s goals and ambitions for the family’s future.  Thriving Families is an additional offer of support for families who have a social worker and are working with Children Services.
