YWCA NSW Works holistically in a number of key vulnerable communities. This place management approach is currently underway in Western Sydney, South West, South East and Northern Rivers and allows us to work deeply within a community. Expected long term outcomes include diminishing intergenerational disadvantage and revitalized, harmonious and prosperous communities made up of confident individuals contributing to the social and economic well-being of their region. YITAV subscribes to the view that "families [are] units within broader communities, including extended family and neighbourhoods, with responsibilities for children resting at both the family and community levels" and that, therefore, support interventions must be directed to increase capacity within the family and within the community.
The findings of the social services research carried out by YWCA NSW echoes findings from research within Australia and internationally, which contributed to the YITAV strategy. Review and evaluation of the processes, outputs and outcomes of YITAV will provide information to amend, enhance and further improve activity.The YITAV Evaluation Grid (YEG) is used to evaluate all our programs.
