  3. Project Goals • To build capacity within FRCs to use an integrated family outcomes tool for planning, assessment and evaluation • To support FRCs to partner with other agencies and local child welfare systems to develop shared outcomes for families • To conduct research and provide a framework of information for a pathway to prevent child abuse and to keep children in stable and nurturing homes

  10. What is the Matrix Outcomes Model? • An evaluation tool for measuring change over time in a family’s situation • A means to design family outcome indicators, record ongoing assessments, guide and track case management activities, and manage data using the Matrix Creator • A method to support the family strength-building relationship
