Developing effective interventions for children and young people
Publisher Description
This guide focuses on designing an intervention and planning for its implementation, both of which are crucial to maximising the potential impact of an intervention on children’s well-being.
It has been produced as part of Realising Ambition, a £25m Big Lottery Fund project intended to take a preventative approach to youth offending by improving outcomes for children and young people aged 8-14.
The book is written for people working in children’s services agencies who want to strengthen the impact of what they do to improve children’s lives. It builds on the Social Research Unit's 'what works' standards of evidence, showing how they can be used to guide the development of promising interventions.
