Evaluation of UnitingCare Men Sustaining Change pilot program

It has long been recognised that many men require follow-up support after attending a Men’s Behaviour Change Program to continue their process of behaviour change. UnitingCare utilised QCDFVR findings from the evaluation of Men Choosing Change to internally fund a two-year pilot (July 2021 – June 2023). The pilot program is called Men Sustaining Change, which provides a co-gendered facilitated peer support group for men who completed Men Choosing Change. QCDFVR is conducting a developmental evaluation working closely with UnitingCare to regularly provide findings to inform policy and practice and to identify outcomes for participants and their partners/ex-partners and children. The evaluation team are Dr Sue Carswell and Dr Liane McDermott.
