Ag Eisteacht Supports Hands Up for Children Campaign

Ag Eisteacht is an official supporter of the Hands Up for Children campaign, a group of almost 50 organisations from across Ireland that want to see a move away from crisis driven responses to children and families in need, towards preventative ones.

Here are the campaign’s 5 key asks of the next government: 

1. Universal access to family support programmes
2. Build on and develop prevention and early intervention practice
3. Increase the budget of Tusla, the Child and Family Agency by 10%
4. Bring investment in early years care and education services up to OECD average
5. Support Systems change towards Prevention and Early Intervention
