The projects are being funded by What Works for Children's Social Care (WWCSC) following the charity's first open funding call, which received more than 50 applications.
Alongside funding the delivery of each of these projects, WWCSC will also fund independent evaluators, who will work with local authorities and other delivery partners over the next 18 months to assess their success and understand how they are implemented.
The successful projects include the Lighthouse Parenting Programme, which will involve Bath and North East Somerset Council and Oxford Health NHS Foundation Trust working therapeutically with parents whose children are at risk of maltreatment to improve outcomes for families with children on a child protection plan or involed in pre-proceedings.
