Welcome to Archways

Archways is a national organisation promoting and researching the use of evidence based programmes as an intervention for young people experiencing social, emotional, and behavioural difficulties and also as a means to prevent such difficulties arising in the first place.

Archways was established in January 2007 to promote the roll-out and evaluation of the Incredible Years programme in Ireland.

Other effective interventions will be added in the coming years.

Archways is a Registered Chairty: Number 17603 _______________________________________________________________

A report by the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Education & Skills on 'Staying in Education' published on Tuesday features Incredible Years as an example of a positive initiative for young people in Ireland. The Incredible Years is listed as one of only four programmes which the report states "appear to be quite successful at attaining their objectives" and "would merit examination in particular when considering early childhood education, family literacy development, and emotional, therapeutic and mental health needs of young people". For a copy of the full report click here.

Also in the news this week, the Irish Times featured the Incredible Years & Archways in an article on parenting courses available for parents in Ireland. For the full article see here.
