To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government how many families have been helped through the Troubled Families programme involving children with (a) truanting problems and (b) mental health problems.

To ask the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government how many families have been helped through the Troubled Families programme involving children with (a) truanting problems and (b) mental health problems.
[163780]
My Department does not currently hold information specifically relating to families helped through the Troubled Families programme involving children with (a) truanting problems and (b) mental health problems.
There are over 35,000 families currently being worked with in the Government's Troubled Families programme.
Persistent unauthorised absence is one of the programme's national eligibility criteria; mental health problems are not. Local areas can, however, also use locally determined criteria to help them identify families causing high costs to the public purse and, anecdotally, we understand that some local authorities have used this local discretion to include families where mental health problems are an issue.
Further information on these issues will be gathered through our independent national evaluation and be made available in due course. Further information on the evaluation can be found at:
