Our Evaluation Reports

Here at the Childhood Development Initiative, we are dedicated to conducting both internal and external evaluations of our interventions to ensure the utmost quality and effectiveness of our services. Our journey in prevention and early intervention programmes began in 2004 with a baseline study called “How Are Our Kids?” which examined the lived experiences of children in Tallaght West. Building upon this study, we have since developed a comprehensive suite of prevention and early intervention programmes tailored to address the specific needs of our community and achieve improvements in various outcomes.

We are passionate about evidence-informed practice and have an effective monitoring and evaluation process in place to ensure the ongoing improvement of our work. Our [link to Quality Services, Better Outcomes Framework ] was developed in 2019 and provides a strong foundation for the planning, monitoring, and evaluation of interventions.

Below is an extensive list of our evaluations conducted across our many programme areas.
