Who we work with

Examples of reports

Mostly, our reports are confidential to the commissioning agency.

A small number are publically available.  Some recent examples are:

Evaluation of Supported Bail Pilot

We evaluated the supported bail pilot programme using information collected via focus groups and individual interviews with rangatahi programme participants aged 12 to 17 years, their whānau, and service delivery and other related staff.

We concluded that the programme enabled a good number and proportion of rangatahi to remain out of custody during their bail period. For many rangatahi the programme also helped improve their wellbeing and that of their whānau.

An Evaluation of Funded Family Care

Funded Family Care is a Ministry of Health-funded support option that enables some disabled people with very high or high needs to pay a family member, who would otherwise be excluded, to provide the disabled family member’s personal care and household management supports.

The Ministry of Health commissioned Artemis Research to assess the impact and effectiveness of Funded Family Care and the reasons influencing its uptake in its first year of operation.
