The Prevention and Early Intervention Network (PEIN) is thrilled to announce the launch of Hands Up for Children, our campaign that calls on the next Government to prioritise the well-being of children and families in Ireland. With the help of our superhero bear mascot, Peinny, we’re advocating for a future where every child has the chance to thrive.
Our campaign calls for a single government department dedicated to child and family well-being, a shift in policy toward prevention rather than reaction, and an increase in accessible, evidence-based services delivered in partnership with the community and voluntary sectors. We’re also seeking commitments to secure, multi-annual funding and training for all staff working with children, ensuring stability and quality in support services.
Through Hands Up for Children, PEIN is advocating for a stronger, more effective system that ensures all children and families receive the support they need. We envision an Ireland where early intervention, collaboration, and equitable funding create a stronger foundation for children and families across the country. By investing in prevention, we’re building a pathway to healthier, more resilient futures.
