Family hubs
The Children’s Commissioner for England has published a discussion paper on the use of family hubs to deliver early intervention services to the whole community. Key points include: family hubs should be a one-stop-shop offering support on a variety of issues to vulnerable families; a thorough evaluation of existing family hubs has not been possible as they have only been in place since April 2015 but initial figures are promising.
