The focus will be on helping them find work and tackling family and school problems.
It is based on the same principles of the government’s Work Programme, which pays private providers and charities only when they have shown success in turning around families’ lives.
Providers will be paid in three stages, when they have signed a family member up to the scheme and agreed a personal action plan with them, when the plan is completed and when the family member finds work.
