Possibilities
This DP is a partnership of
organisations which have an interest in promoting equality of
opportunity for lone parents in respect of employment.
The DP objectives will be:
• To identify the
obstacles which inhibit lone parent entry into the labour market
and lead to economic inactivity;
• To review current interventions aimed at improving lone
parents access to employment and enhancing employability;
• To identify gaps in provision and make recommendations
for the development of appropriate responses;
• To demonstrate ways in which existing interventions
can become more effective through additionality, mainstreaming
and interagency work;
• To highlight existing models of good practice and pilot
an innovative model of community based intervention which can
be replicated; and
• To disseminate and recommend the replication and mainstreaming
of effective policy and practice domestically, transnationally
and on a cross border basis.
