Supporting Families has been on a journey with families, local authorities and their partners since it began in 2012. It has delivered for families under three different government administrations, while wider society and the way in which local services are delivered look very different today. The programme has already helped families make extraord...
1. Since its launch in 2011, up to £1.533 billion of funding through the Troubled Families Programme has helped families and local areas to achieve a huge amount. The programme supported over 400,000 families to achieve positive outcomes between 2015-2021. Each one of these outcomes means a family’s life changed for the better, whether it has meant...
What the programme has achieved
10. The programme was launched 10 years ago with a simple, but clear principle – effective support for vulnerable families cannot be provided in an uncoordinated, transactional way, which sees only problems rather than people and fails to comprehend the entirety of a family’s life. The result is escalating problems, poor outcomes often perpetuated across generations, and unmanageable flows into reactive, statutory systems, which is overwhelming for public services and costly for society as a...
How the programme achieved it
17. The service transformation brought about in the last decade has relied first and foremost on the leadership and dedication of local authorities and of all the agencies involved, to engage in a new way of working. Where the programme has been most successful, local authorities and their partners have led the way, convening partnerships, breaking down barriers, innovating, and working seamlessly with government to make the most of the strategic investment and central support provided. 18. A...
The impact of COVID-19 and the role of early help
26. We know that the pandemic has had a significant impact on the lives of vulnerable families, exacerbating existing problems for those who were already struggling and creating a new set of issues for others. Many of the issues which have emerged over the last year are ones that will be familiar to local partners. Improving family relationships and tackling domestic abuse, keeping children, families and young people healthy and safe, re-engaging pupils in school and driving up school attenda...
A whole system approach nationally
32. The Troubled Families Programme is designed to bring together multi-agency partners to deliver joined up support for vulnerable families, rather than to provide a stand-alone specialist service on its own. It provides a framework for working with families in an intensive, whole family way and tracking their outcomes, as well as enabling the long-term service change that we know delivers the most effective support for families. This means it is deeply interlinked with a much wider set of p...
Our vision for change
35. Now is the time to be ambitious for families and for our public services. Our vision for the next phase of the programme, and the wider system it stewards, has two key elements: 1. We want to see vulnerable families thrive. We will build their resilience by providing effective, whole family support to help prevent escalation into statutory services. 2. We will drive systems change locally and nationally, creating joined up local services, able to identify families in need, provide the rig...
The first year of a new phase
45. Local authorities have adapted considerably over the past year to respond to the additional needs created by the pandemic, while at the same time coping with the effect of COVID-19 on their own staff and services. We understand that it is important to provide as much stability as possible throughout 2021-22. We will therefore retain the same funding and delivery structure, and authorities will receive their share of the further £165 million funding on the same basis as in previous years....
2021-22 – Building the foundations for long term improvements
47. As a nation we are starting to look beyond the pandemic to put in place what we need to recover. The programme is well positioned to play a key role in supporting vulnerable families to recover from the pandemic. Now, more than ever, we believe that every vulnerable family deserves to receive the right support at the right time, from services that understand all their needs, and support them in a whole family way. 48. We know that joined up local partnerships with a strong data sharing cu...
A focus on the whole system
49. We know that strong local partnerships deliver better outcomes for families. However, every local area is different. There is no single model for a data driven and joined-up local system that is able to provide the right support at the right time for vulnerable families. There is, however, a significant body of evidence build up over the last 10 years which helps us to understand what is most likely to be effective. Building on this evidence base, we will work with areas to identify the k...
60. Making the vision set out here a reality is not something that a single government department, local authority or agency can achieve on its own. We look forward to working very closely with other government departments, all local agencies that support families, and with families and communities themselves, to continue to drive improvements, and...
