2.3: Children and Families at Risk

Early intervention for children at risk and families.

Other Information:

The ACT Government is formulating its comprehensive approach to early childhood services that invest in the health, development, education and well-being of young children. This work recognises the effectiveness of early intervention programs that focus on young children and responsive support to their families. Part of this work is an evaluation of existing early intervention programs. This evaluation will inform the development of integrated service responses that focus on effective prevention and early intervention. The ACT Government will seek to address the particular needs of children at risk of a lifetime of disadvantage and to improve health and development outcomes for all children growing up in the ACT.
