SEEKS AN
EXPRESSION OF INTEREST
FOR THE
DEVELOPMENT OF A STRATEGIC IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR A COMMUNITY
FAMILIES HOME VISITING SERVICE IN THE BALLYFERMOT CHERRY ORCHARD
AREAS.
CONTEXT TO THE INITIATIVE:
There is a gap in the provision of a community based home-visiting
service to/with perinatal parents in the Dublin **Apply on the
website** area. Since the Community Mothers service ceased in the area
a number of years ago, there has been no replacement of this
invaluable service, as a universal provision for expectant parents and
parents of new babies. Additionally, primary care services and
supports for expectant parents and parents of new babies are currently
under pressure due to severe recruitment challenges.
In order to mitigate against significant milestone delays in babies
and young children in the area, which is exacerbated by
intergenerational trauma poverty, Liffey Partnership, seeks to develop
a strategic and operational plan, for an early intervention and
prevention ‘Community Families’ home visiting programme.
This service would complement the current suite of wraparound supports
being offered to families by Family Matters Area Based Childhood (ABC)
Programme and other community and statutory partners in the area.
