Child and Family

Using data to support resilience and safety

Projected lifetime outcomes for young people and their families highlight the need to invest now

Research continues to demonstrate that disadvantage impacts lifetime trajectories from a young age. Early intervention improving safety and educational outcomes leads to big benefits to government and communities.

​We deliver …​

  • Long-range modelling of outcomes for children and their families
  • Linked data analysis of outcomes
  • Service demand and funding analysis
  • Program evaluation.

 


What we offer

Long-range outcome modelling

Understanding the likely pathways for a cohort is key to building business cases and re-designing programs. We build person-centred models of risk and resilience.


Measuring the value of early intervention

Service providers may witness only short-term outcomes for children and their families, but data linkage and population modelling can convert this into longer-term benefits.


Evaluation

Mixed methods evaluation of family interventions can unlock insights into the degree of benefit and the drivers of improvement. Figuring out what works for whom is a core challenge for policymakers that can be informed by evidence.
