Actions to support parenting skills and prevent the vulnerability of families and children - PIPPI 4 - mun VII-VIII-IX

Supporting vulnerable people and preventing institutionalization  (Mission 5, Component 2, Investment 1)

Italy’s Recovery and Resilience Plan provides support for vulnerable people and preventing institutionalisation. This investment will include the following interventions: (I) supporting parenting skills and preventing vulnerability of families and children; (II) supporting an autonomous life and de-institutionalisation for elderly people; (II) reinforcing home social services to guarantee early supported discharge and prevent hospitalization; (III) strengthening social services and preventing burnout among social workers.

The investment is financed by Italy’s Recovery and Resilience plan by EUR 85 million at the national level.

As part of this investment, the intervention aimed to strengthen social assistance services for vulnerable families, focusing on supporting parents and children, especially those aged 0–6. It involved home support, parenting skill development, and customised projects tailored to each household’s needs. Five “PIPPI” projects were implemented, reaching a total of 250 families.

This project is financed by the Recovery and Resilience Facility with EUR 211.500,00.
