Rishi Sunak – 2018 Comments on the Troubled Families Programme

The comments made by Rishi Sunak, the then Local Government Minister, on 27 March 2018.

This report details the hard work that’s been happening across the country over the past year to help families with a variety of challenging problems improve their lives, reduce their dependency on local services, and in doing so deliver better value for taxpayers.

Adults who were once far from the job market are now moving into work. Children are getting the right support they need and local leaders are encouraging and challenging all services working with children and their families to act early and offer whole family support, to stop their problems becoming worse.
