People in the transition to parenthood (TTP) are likely to need services in acute and community health, public health, early education and childcare. Parents also have needs for employment, income, housing, nutrition, transport, goods & equipment for babies, security, social support, leisure, communication and information, all appropriate for themselves and their families.

NCT provides, offers or stimulates solutions- which meet the needs of politicians, policy makers and service providers - for both short-term successes and long-term benefits - in terms of finance, efficiency and outcomes
