Our Strategy
Our ambitious strategy outlines the roadmap for achieving our mission.
It explains how we will generate and champion actionable evidence to improve services for children and families.
Being a What Works Centre
We are a national What Works Centre turning high-quality evidence into better decisions and better outcomes for children and families.
Acting at the interface between evidence and service improvement, we bridge the gaps between research, policy and practice so that services achieve better outcomes for children and families.
Advisory Groups
We consult a range of advisory groups to ensure diverse perspectives and expertise are heard.
Our advisory groups bring expert, lived, and professional insight to shape our work and strengthen our impact.
Equality, Diversity, Inclusion and Equity
Foundations is committed to ensuring that everything we do actively promotes equality, diversity, inclusion and equity (EDIE).
While our work spans all areas of EDIE, the strength of evidence showing racial inequalities in children’s services means that anti-racism will be a priority for the next three years.
Our work
We generate and champion actionable evidence that improves services to support family relationships and shapes better policy and practice, so more vulnerable children have the foundational relationships they need to thrive in life.
