Yesterday at Treoir's AGM we had an insightful discussion with speakers looking at the issues surrounding guardianship that must be addressed in our legislation. This included Kinship Carers, LGBTQ parents, and Valeries' Law.

#Guardianship #Kinshipcare #Valerieslaw #LGBTQ

Today marks the 10-year anniversary of Ireland's marriage equality referendum.🏳️‍🌈 But still, many children of LGBTQ+ parents are being denied a legal connection to both their parents.

The Assisted Human Reproductive Act must be amended to ensure equality for all families.
#marriageequality #10years

Happy International day of Families: the composition of the family has changed in Ireland, and our legislation and family law must be transformed to reflect this.

We strive to represent families of today and ensure they are visible and heard in both society and policy.

#InternationalDayofFamilies

This Bill is still subject to change so if you have any concerns about your particular case we recommend getting in contact with your local TD to raise this issue.

For more information check our social and website.

Grief doesn't discriminate, neither should the pension.

#EveryChild #TogetherforPublic

Yesterday Treoir and @kinshipcareireland.bsky.social met with Louise O'Reilly from Sinn Féin to discuss the Bereaved Partner's Pension, Guardianship Payment, and child maintenance included as means for social housing.

#BereavedPartnersPension #CohabitingCouples #ChildMaintenance

Child and Family support organisation Treoir said a 'whole of government response' similar to the emergency measures taken during the pandemic should be taken, in which politicians focus relentlessly on the one issue.

🗣️"Jim O’Callaghan asks public for their views on the payment of child maintenance to help inform new guidelines."
