IRISS Podcast: Introduction to the data linkage and mining conference

Description

The evaluation of everyday multi-professional intervention to safeguard and promote the well-being of vulnerable children is limited and restricts both operational planning and professional intervention. The core aim of this programme are to contribute to the development of a platform that will support better understanding of the routes from intervention to outcomes for vulnerable children through utilising administrative datasets and longitudinal research. Janice McGhee teaches areas include social work and the law, psychology and human development. Current research interests are related to child welfare policy and law, the Children's Hearings system and the impact of recent child protection legislation. She has substantial practice experience in a range of settings. These include a local authority social work centre, an emergency duty team providing an out-of-hours service and as a senior social worker in a London teaching hospital.
