[FRC National Forum @frcnf]

An Taoiseach @MichealMartinTD outlines committment to end child poverty. Great to hear recognition of children in community, including express reference to the role of Family Resource Centres under the remit of @NormaFoleyTD1 #familyresourceirl @DeptCDE @GovIE @tusla

[Northside FRC @NorthsideFRC]

Looking forward to our colleagues in @HospitalFRC’s presentation at the @frcnf National Conference. Amazing work supporting persons with disabilities to advocate for change locally and nationally. #FamilyResourceIRL

@greenparty_ie @sinnfeinireland @NorthsideFRC @SocDems - Increase funding for Family Resource Centres to allow for the optimum core funding levels identified.

Yes Soc Dems. Don’t forget the other streams like Counselling but I’ll take it!

- Make multi-annual gov funding the default model for the C&V sector.

Nice point!

@FineGael
Expand FRCs: We will increase the number of FRCs, while exploring ways to better support non-profit and social enterprise organisations.

Meh. At least we were mentioned as being useful enough to replicate. No mention of targeted funding for existing FRCs.

[Ciara Kane @Ci_Kane]

@greenparty_ie @sinnfeinireland - Increasing funding for family resource centres, men's sheds, community centres, public participation networks and the community services programme

Non-specific. I’ll take it though. Would also welcome increase in CSP (for @NorthsideFRC that’s meals on wheels)

[Ciara Kane @Ci_Kane]

@greenparty_ie @labour will increase the minimum core funding for Family Resource Centres, support them in securing their own premises, and enhance the counselling and therapeutic supports they provide.

Now this I can get behind. Fair play Labour for recognising basic needs of FRCs

[Ciara Kane @Ci_Kane]

@dcediy spotlights Family Resource Centres as their leading child and family prevention and early intervention programme. There are 121 FRCs nationally and 4 located in LK City & Co. So where do we sit in #ge2024 manifestos???
