Abstract:
Intervention in the early years, including family support, can reduce inequality and disadvantage across the life course. This paper reports on an evaluation of a local project, which aims to increase resilience and avert crisis among vulnerable young mothers. It suggests that paraprofessional link workers, spanning the antenatal-postnatal period, may contribute to maternal health and wellbeing and increase use of support services and networks. However, challenges for inter-agency and interprofessional working remain.
