LARC home | About LARC4 | Background | Past rounds | Dartington event

LARC, the Local Authorities Research Consortium, was founded to support local authorities to develop integrated working through sector-led collaborative research projects. The consortium oversees and supports authorities’ research which explores integrated working and outcomes for children, young people and families. LARC adopts an innovative and creative approach to help authorities develop capacity to conduct and engage in research.

Each year, the consortium chooses a different focus for the research with authorities and national agencies including NFER, RIP and the LG Group:

  • LARC1 evaluated the early impact of integrated children's services
  • LARC2 reported on integrated working and the CAF process
  • LARC3 examined early intervention, using the CAF process, and its cost effectiveness.
  • LARC4 is looking at the interface between CAF/TAC model and social care intervention to support children and families with complex high level needs.
