T2A Final Process Evaluation Report

Evaluation, Maturity

Open report

This is an evaluation of the T2A Pathway programme which was launched in January 2014 to test innovative ways of working with young adults at the key points of the criminal justice system. The evaluation established an evidence base for the T2A projects (supporting delivery organisations with data collection and research methods), to demonstrate effective interventions and measure the impact of delivering young adult-specific interventions at the T2A Pathway points, providing robust evidence for policy-makers and commissioners.
