Since 2021, researchers from Northumbria have been collaborating with @unisouthampton.bsky.social @sheffielduni.bsky.social @unibirmingham.bsky.social @bristoluni.bsky.social @newcastleuni.bsky.social and @leedsbeckett.bsky.social,
UK organisations and police forces to measure the impact of CARA.

The CARA scheme was developed in 2011 as a conditional caution offered by police to adults involved in first time offences of domestic violence and abuse of low or medium risk - as a way of intervening and preventing further offending.

📣Research findings from the national evaluation of Project CARA, or Cautioning and Relationship Abuse, were presented at a conference held at Northumbria which explored ways to improve outcomes for families involved with the justice system.

Huge thanks to Dame @verabaird.bsky.social for joining us.
