Authors:	Allen, Kate
Keywords:	Parenting;Service provision;Early intervention;Economic costs;Mental health;Impact on children and young people
Year:	2013
Publisher:	Family & Relationship Services Australia
Notes:	This report is the work of Family & Relationship Services Australia (FRSA), the national peak body for family relationship and support services provided at the community level. Their report is addressed to policy makers and elected officials, and advocates the need for early intervention and family support services as a government strategy. FRSA sees such policies as an investment in Australia’s human capital, leading to increased civic engagement and decreased social dysfunction. This approach is shown to be cost-effective in preventing violence against women and their children, in managing the cost of mental health problems in children and young people, and in providing a competitive advantage to Australia’s economy overall.
