It is with deep sadness that Children in Northern Ireland (CiNI) acknowledges the closure of Parenting Focus. This is a huge loss for children, parents, and families across Northern Ireland, who have benefited enormously from the care, commitment, and expertise of this remarkable organisation.
Over many years, Parenting Focus has stood beside families through some of their most challenging moments, offering hope, guidance, and practical support. Their work has been consistently underpinned by compassion and robust evidence, ensuring that countless children and parents were not only supported in the short term but empowered to build brighter futures.
We are extremely grateful for the generosity shown by Parenting Focus in gifting us a number of their evidence-based programmes. These programmes represent years of knowledge, development, and commitment to families. We are honoured to carry this legacy forward and are fully committed to ensuring that these resources continue to benefit parents, children, and families across Northern Ireland well into the future.
While this closure is a moment of real loss, it is also a reminder of the importance of sustaining vital services that help families thrive. We pledge to protect and champion the legacy of Parenting Focus and to continue working steadfastly for the wellbeing of children and young people, parents and families
