The Children’s Social Care Innovation Programme launched in 2014 to test and share effective ways of supporting vulnerable children and young people who need help from children’s social care services.

Round 2 took place between 2016 and 2020. This report provides an overview of findings from evaluations, overall conclusions and suggests recommendations for children’s services.
