	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/06/2019 answer text <p>The Troubled Families Programme is a £920 million programme to help up to 400,000 families with multiple and complex needs, including those at risk of becoming involved in crime and serious violence. The Supporting Families Against Youth Crime Fund has provided a further £9.8 million to help 21 places further enhance how their local Troubled Families Programme helps tackle youth violence and gangs. Each of the projects are designed to respond directly to the needs of their community and so the support provided to families varies in each local area. They include diversionary activities such as boxing and residential courses, resilience building, out of hours mentors, conflict resolution and whole family counselling. Local areas awarded funding will provide monitoring data later this year.</p> answering member constituency Richmond (Yorks) answering member printed Rishi Sunak question first answered 24/06/2019 15:13:25 answering member 4483 label Biography information for Rishi Sunak
