Our theory

The theory behind Family by Family?

Link ups are how Family by Family works to enable thriving.  Link ups connect families who are going through tough times with families who have come out the other side.   Through spending time with another family who has ‘been there, done that’, families experience new and different ways of doing family.

To read more about the thinking behind Family by Family check out the chapter we wrote for Building Intergrated Connections for Children, their Families and Communities edited by Karl Bretting & Margaret Sims, Published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing in the UK.
