Troubled families boost for Casey

摘要

The coalition's flagship troubled families programme is now supporting more than half of the 120,000 chaotic households it was pledged to help transform by 2015, ministers have announced.Latest figures issued by the DCLG on 25 November show the £448m three-year initiative led by Louise Casey is involved with 62,000 households and more than 22,000 families have been successfully helped under the payment-by-results scheme.To gain a full share of the £4,000 available, top-tier English authorities must help reduce school truancy rates, reduce levels of anti-social behaviour and find work for unemployed adults.
