Subject(s): Online resources: ANROWS Landscapes, Issue 5, July 2015Summary: This research project has been designed to provide a national mapping and meta-evaluation of the key features of "safe at home" programs that enhance safety and prevent homelessness for women and their children who have experienced domestic and family violence. The specific aims of this research are to: • examine the important program characteristics, outcome domains and research methods in evaluations of Australian "safe at home" programs, including the strengths and weaknesses of previous evaluations; • synthesise existing evaluations and literature to produce evidence of the effectiveness of "safe at home" programs; • provide direction for future evaluations and organisations by recommending key minimum elements and datasets in particular locations, contexts and circumstances to improve the safety of women and their children; and • establish a national, and potentially international, benchmark for future evaluations and projects in this field.
