Committee on Disability Matters
Progressing the Delivery of Disability Policy and Services: Discussion (Resumed)
2:00 am
Dr. Aoife O'Donohue:
One model we are looking at, even as families join our teams, is the understanding of the model and everything. We are looking at the Connect Family Network. We are looking at myriad options but for families who have utilised this and are aware in their local areas of what supports are there, we will connect those parents. That has been done in Tipperary, Galway and Cork and the evaluation of it has been really successful. We are looking at expanding that but also responding and listening to families through their IFSP and those goals to see what has and has not worked, and to respond appropriately.
