Anglicare Southern Queensland's Children and Parenting Services Evaluation Final Report

The Children and Parenting (C&P) program administered by Anglicare Southern Queensland (Anglicare) is an early intervention and prevention program that aims to enhance child development and wellbeing, and support those in a parental or caring role to raise children. Drawing evidence and insights from C&P clients and stakeholders for the financial year 2019–2020 a mixed-methods approach was used that included service usage data (N=1,999 clients), online client survey data (n=38), and client (n=9), community partner (n=4), and staff (n=11) interview data to evaluate Anglicare’s C&P services. The report presents the findings of this evaluation, and highlights implications for the implementation, reach and effectiveness of the program, to inform future service quality improvement.
