Out of the Institution. An investigation of deinstitutionalization, exploring the effectiveness of supported housing for people with psychiatric disabilities leaving care

该项目有两个目标。第一个是调查一个独特的模式，支持住房的非机构化的人生活在社区的结果。第二个是调查即将脱离机构的人沿着工作人员和家庭，并建立一个框架，对这一群体进行纵向分析。虽然是一项重大的社会政策改革，但澳大利亚的去机构化研究一直不足，尽管存在潜在的陷阱。该项目将提供信息和分析，帮助政府和社区机构为客户和社区寻求和提供更好的结果。

The project has two objectives. The first is to investigate outcomes of a unique model of supported housing for deinstitutionalised people living in the community. The second is to survey people that are about to be deinstitutionalised along with staff and family and set up a framework for longitudinal analysis of this group. While a major social policy reform, deinstitutionalisation in Australia has been under-researched, despite the potential pitfalls. This project will provide information and analysis that will help government and community agencies to seek and provide better outcomes for clients and communities.
