Rees Centre researcher Dr Nikki Luke has published a policy brief on Measuring Outcomes for Care Leavers.

This brief was produced following a workshop in Oxford that brought together researchers, care-experienced facilitators, representatives from national and local government teams and charities supporting care leavers to participate in a research-informed discussion of what measures might look like.

Nikki said: “It’s really important for national and local government to know how care leavers are getting on across all areas of life, so they can provide the right support at the right time and celebrate care leavers’ successes. This policy brief draws on research with care leavers and our workshop discussions to make recommendations about how care leavers’ outcomes might best be measured.”
