Children and Young People’s Services Committee
Children and Young People’s Services Committees (CYPSC) are a key structure identified by Government to plan and co-ordinate services for children and young people in every county in Ireland. Their age remit spans all children and young people aged from 0 to 24 years. The purpose of the Tipperary CYPSC is to ensure effective interagency co-ordination and collaboration to achieve the best outcomes for all children and young people across the county. Tipperary CYPSC develops a Children and Young People’s Plan every three years currently. Tipperary is in the process of implementing its current plan 2022-2025.
