What is Family Support?
A clear understanding of the term Family Support is necessary
to ensure a consistent approach in ‘thinking about’ and ‘doing’
Family Support. Murphy (1996) provided the first widely accepted
definition of Family Support in Ireland, describing it as “the
collective title given to a broad range of provisions developed by
a combination of statutory and voluntary agencies to promote
the welfare of children and families in their own homes and
communities. These services are provided mainly to particularly
vulnerable children in disadvantaged areas, and often include preschool,
parental education, development, and support activities,
as well as homemaker, visiting schemes and youth education and
training projects”
