The aims of the Finsbury Park Homeless Families Project are:
The Finsbury Park Homeless Families Project aims to improve the quality of life of homeless families living in temporary accommodation in North and East London.
We prove a range of service provision for families until they have settled into permanent accommodation
The aim of these services is:
1. to offer practical and emotional support
2. to improve access to statutory and community services
3. to increase awareness and take-up of rights and entitlements
4. to provide access to education and training.
5. to provide social and cultural opportunities
6. to reduce isolation.
In all of the above the Project actively promotes and implements its Equal Opportunities Policies.
The title and aim of the Project
Family support and Parenting Co-ordinator Service:
Strengthen existing parental couple relationships, whether parents live together or part, and assist separated/divorced parents who are in conflict to better, work together in order to minimize the impact on parental relationship on their child or children, and so improve outcomes for those children.
Strengthen family relationships in families where parental behaviours compromise family wellbeing, for example where parents are substance/alcohol misuses, have significant mental health problems or live with high degrees of conflict and distress.
Promote inclusion and equality by enabling the take up of existing services by disadvantaged, vulnerable, hard to reach and less well served communities.
Work to support families of offenders to improve life chances of their children.
