Dr Kate Frazer @ucdsnmhs and colleagues, Prof Thilo Kroll Dr Gillian Paul and Ms Xuefang Alterman, have produced a Policy Brief report aimed at policymakers focusing on the impact on health for Children born into and living in temporary and emergency accommodation.
The Policy Brief presents a summary from a workshop held in October 2019 in The Mansion House, Dublin supported by @UCDDublin seed funding. Principal findings centre around the need to create child-friendly, safe, regularly inspected, and developmentally appropriate accommodations and assistance for families to navigate supports available to them.
