Enhancing services to Australian children and families: linking workforce characteristics, job quality, and quality and outcomes in social services

该项目旨在促进儿童和家庭福利服务方面的最佳做法，并提高行业和社会对澳大利亚儿童和家庭福利工作的认可。这些指标将建立一个分析框架，解释儿童和家庭服务工作人员的性质和部署、服务提供系统和结果以及社会政策制度之间的联系，并将其更广泛地应用于其他个人社会服务。明智地使用国际比较将有助于确定最佳做法。该项目将为向弱势家庭、老年人和残疾人提供社会服务的政策和研究提供信息。

This project aims to promote best practice in child and family welfare services, and to improve the industrial and social recognition of child and family welfare work in Australia. The CIs will construct an analytical framework for explaining the links between the nature and deployment of the child and family services workforce, service delivery systems and outcomes, and social policy regimes, with wider application to other personal social services. Judicious use of international comparison will assist identification of best practice. The project will inform policy and research in social service provision to vulnerable families, and the aged and disabled.
