II.1.4) Short description
The Family Innovation Fund enables ECC to work with its partners in the voluntary and community sector to deliver good outcomes as early as possible. The services will not support those children, young people and families already known to and in receipt of support from specialist and statutory services, rather they will ensure delivery of support that complements, not duplicates existing services such as:
— school funded support at additional levels of need,
— Esex Child and Family Wellbeing Service,
— Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health Service,
— family solutions.
By early intervention we mean stopping something occurring or getting worse and for the purposes of this funding will provide brief, light touch interventions that will enable children, young people, parents and carers to draw on their own resources and resilience to resolve future problems.
