Description
The Family Innovation Fund enables ECC to work with its partners in the voluntary and community sector to deliver good outcomes as early as possible. The services will not support those children, young people and families already known to and in receipt of support from specialist and statutory services, rather they will ensure delivery of support that complements, not duplicates existing services such as;
⢠School funded support at additional levels of need ⢠Essex Child and Family Wellbeing Service ⢠Essex Integrated Wellbeing Service ⢠Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service ⢠Family Solutions
By Early Intervention we mean stopping something occurring or getting worse and for the purposes of this funding will provide brief, light touch interventions that will enable children, young people, parents and carers to draw on their own resources and resilience to resolve future problems.
This Grant is concerned with working with children and young people, parents/carers and families who will benefit from receiving support by way of Brief Solution Focussed Support (BSFS) such as coaching, mediation, conflict resolution, counselling, through 1:1, group and family/parent/couples work. This will usually take place in face to face however, it may also take place using on-line platforms if that is deemed appropriate, for example during holiday periods or weekends/evenings.
The total Family Innovation Fund is £1,200,000 over three years, with £720,000 allocated to BSFS through 1:1, group and family/couples work.
Year 1 2023/24 £300,000 Year 2 2024/25 £210,000 Year 3 2025/26 £210,000
BSFS will be delivered across Essex but priority will be given to The Essex Levelling Up areas set out in the table in 6.1 to support the delivery of our levelling ambitions and Everyone's Essex Plan Everyones Essex
There will be provision within the Grant Agreement, at the discretion of ECC to extend the grants for up to two years on a one plus one year basis. There will be further provision for the value to be varied within any extension up to the original year one value namely £300,000.
Provision in the Grant Agreement (clause 12) outlines the conditions under which ECC will either withhold or claim back funds paid to the provider.
