Thousands of families with children are set to benefit from £33 million support to resolve conflict at home and improve children’s life chances.
The Reducing Parental Conflict programme funds councils across England to deliver evidence-based relationship support to parents in their communities.
The scheme was launched in 2018 in response to research which shows that frequent, intense and poorly resolved conflict between parents can significantly impact children’s mental health and long-term life chances, affecting their school grades, early emotional and social development, future relationships and employment.
The latest funding injection follows the programme’s third evaluation report, which details the positive effect of the support on family relationships and improvements in their children’s behaviour.
The new funding will enable councils to train many more frontline staff who regularly come into contact with families facing conflict. This means that staff working in early years education, policing, schooling, and health and social care will be equipped to support parents, addressing conflict in families and improving children’s well-being.
