Established in 2019 the Integrated Youth and Family Project (IYFP) is a
partnership between Foróige and Tusla, offering structured support to identified
at-risk young people and families within the Tusla Louth Meath area. The Project
is funded by Tusla through the Creative Community Alternatives Initiative (CCA).
The objective of each CCA project is to support children to live in their
community 24/7 resulting in fewer children in residential care; more children
stopped from coming into residential care; prevention through creative
community alternatives; and de-escalation to community through creative
community alternatives.
It is proposed to develop a model of working with vulnerable young people and
families, to provide specialist intervention and support services for:

1. Identified young people, who are at risk of reception into care.
2. Young people who are in foster care and approaching disengagement.
3. Young people with identified complex emotional needs or levels of risk.
4. Parents and siblings of those engaged.
