St Michael's Family Resource Centre Crèche and Afterschool is part of the Family Resource Centre Community Development Project in Inchicore, Dublin 8. The Family Resource Centre Community Development Project acknowledges that Irish society has significant inequalities in relation to income, resources and power. We are aware that the gap between rich and poor continues to widen. We are also keenly aware of many sections of Irish society who are discriminated against and as a result are often marginalised and benefit less from progress made locally and nationally.
The Family Resource Centre Women’s Community Development Project, through its policy work at a local and national level, challenges this ingrained and structural inequality. We work with the most marginalised people in the St. Michael’s Estate area. We work with women, new community children, older people, men, new communities and Travellers. We believe in people’s capacity to grow and change and contribute to making their lives, their children’s lives and their community life better. We meet people where they are at in their lives and at the core of The Family Resource Centre Community Development Project is a genuine commitment to people of all ages, gender, sexuality, race, ability etc. We value the human rights of the people we work with and we work diligently to make people aware of their rights and to protect those rights.
