Fragile families and child wellbeing
The 2006 biennial Edith Dominian Memorial Lecture, stimulated such lively debate and interest that we decided to publish the proceedings - a pdf can be downloaded here. One conclusion from the lecture, the opportunity for effective interventions around the birth of a child, has contributed to recent innovative policy making such as an intensive home visiting programme for families most at risk. One Plus One is involved in the development of these health-led parenting support demonstration projects, part of the social exclusion action plan to be implemented this year.28 January 2007
