Notice Title

Employment Support for Troubled Families - Central London Local Enterprise Partnership Area

Notice Description

This Provision is voluntary and will aim to tackle worklessness of unemployed and inactive individuals from troubled families to move them into sustained work. The provision will engage with the family and individuals to identify and address barriers to work, by developing close working arrangements with other local services involved in the support of the troubled family (for example Local Authorities), and using a range of tailored support/provision, which will move them into sustained work at the earliest opportunity. The focus of the Provision will be on providing a holistic whole family approach, making support available to eligible individual family members. The provision will take into account the problems faced by the family, which are preventing the individuals from securing and retaining employment. It will give consideration to the best way for the ESF Provision to work alongside other interventions the family is receiving, to provide the best package of support possible.
