The engagement will explore existing provision, strategic and practice gaps, workforce capability, prevention approaches, partnership models, evidence and evaluation, and the feasibility of future delivery options. Potential areas of focus include: (1) building system capability through workforce development, guidance, resources, communities of practice and evidence translation; and (2) local authority test-and-learn pilots to explore place-based approaches such as digital youth work, targeted prevention, safeguarding pathways and peer approaches.
