Strengthening Families, Protecting Children (SFPC)

Welcome to the Strengthening Families, Protecting Children learning website! This site hosts the Strengthening Families Journal and additional material to capture learning from the Strengthening Families, Protecting Children programme. It connects activity across the programme with wider research and policy, setting the scene for the role innovation has to play in children’s social care.

Find out more on our About the programme page.

We look forward to sharing this content with you over the coming years!
