Early Intervention Foundation unveils test sites

The 20 English areas to become test beds for shaping police, health and social care services around early intervention work have been announced.

The 20 places named by the Early Intervention Foundation (EIF) will bring together councils, police and crime commissioners, and clinical commissioning groups to share evidence, information and good practice with the intention of prioritising early intervention services.

The foundation will provide places with expertise and advice, and ensure learning from individual sites is shared across the network. Each site will be allocated a national adviser to provide support and access to experts in specific fields.

As well as developing an evidence base for the effectiveness of early intervention, the foundation wants the proportion of agency budgets spent on early intervention to increase over the 18-month programme.
