We work to affect positive change and achieve equality and social inclusion for all one-parent families in Ireland.
One Family is funded and approved by the HSE to provide free, confidential and non-judgmental counselling services for women and couples facing an unplanned pregnancy and for those in need of support following an abortion.
We have launched a fund in memory of our friend and colleague, Sherie de Burgh, to continue her work with vulnerable mothers and children.
To find out more about the services we provide here at One Family, follow the link below.
We want to reassure parents and clients that our Helpline, Information Services, Parenting Supports, Educational Courses, Early Years Service and Counselling Services remain open.
