• implementing a supportive housing service model using community resources that would be useful to the target population;
Supportive Housing
• providing case management for children and parents using evidence-based practices and trauma-informed care

Cross site findings from systems change framework
• Multi-agency team meetings for treatment families and co-location
Strong interagency teams
• Challenges to clarify roles and capacity across systems and with service providers
Some challenges in teaming
• At the frontline, most information is shared informally; at the middle management level, some aggregate information is shared.
Data sharing has been a major hurdle
• Universal screening
• Increase in housing search capacity
• Co-location of child welfare and service providers
Some influence on child welfare practice
• Voucher preference and housing priority Early signs of
systems change

Interim outcomes will be released late summer
• Interim report examining cross-site child welfare and housing outcomes to be released late summer
Impacts
• Cost of a night in shelter (in process), cost of child welfare services (this fall), cost of program services (2017), costs to other systems (2017/2018), benefits such as increased employment (2017/2018)
Benefit-Cost Analysis
• Examining evidence-based services and sustainability plan at each site this fall
Program observation
• Second group of interviews begins this fall to dive deeper into themes identified in first group
In-depth family interviews
