Youth services in remote communities

该项目旨在改善澳大利亚和加拿大偏远社区高危青少年的预后。它将建立一个跨学科研究网络，由在向高危青年提供方案方面经验丰富的研究人员和服务机构组成；制定一个普遍的干预定义，以及一个有用的、科学严谨的评估框架；并将干预和评估框架整合到参与服务的日常服务交付中。该项目预期将增加向高风险青年提供的服务的数量和质量，改善他们的社会、健康和经济成果，并为其社区带来积极的经济效益。

This project aims to improve outcomes for high-risk youth in remote communities in Australia and Canada. It will establish a transdisciplinary research network comprising researchers and services experienced in delivering programmes to high-risk youth; develop a universal intervention definition, and a useful, scientifically rigorous evaluation framework; and integrate the intervention and evaluation framework into participating services’ routine service delivery. This project expects to increase the number and quality of services available for high-risk youth, improve their social, health and economic outcomes, and generate positive economic benefit for their communities.
