The Government has emphasised measures to tackle social exclusion as
one of the main planks of its policy programme. The Teesside area has
long faced the consequences of social exclusion, and will now be at
the forefront of initiatives which seek to tackle its causes at the
local level.
This day conference will address the key trends in social exclusion
and focus on local work to combat it. Speakers and participants will
be drawn from a range of organisational backgrounds in the health and
welfare fields.
