Abstract

Meitheal is a Tusla led early intervention practice model designed to ensure that the
strengths and needs of children and their families are effectively identified, understood, and responded to in a timely way so they get the help and support needed to improve children’s outcomes and realise their rights. It is a multi-agency response (when necessary), tailored to the needs of the individual child or young person. This research reviewed the implementation and impact of Meitheal, including the role of the CFSNs in supporting its delivery
