Preventing Violence Against Women and Girls and Supporting Children Fund - Children Affected by Domestic Abuse (CADA) EVALUATION

Tender description

The Secretary of State for the Home Department (the "Authority"), acting through the Interpersonal Abuse Unit, intends to make an amount up to £1,050,000 over three years (up to 31st March 2025) of grant funding available. This will fund one Recipient. We are seeking a dedicated CADA "what works" evaluation project to evaluate all projects that we fund to be delivered under CADA. Bidders must be able to demonstrate their ability to work with delivery partners (who will be contracted under the CADA fund), to deliver robust evaluation of these interventions. Tackling VAWG is a top Government priority. In 2021, the Domestic Abuse Act received royal assent and introduced a new statutory definition of domestic abuse, recognising children as victims of domestic abuse in their own right. The Act will increase protections for victims and strengthen measures to pursue perpetrators. Alongside implementation of the Domestic Abuse Act, the government published the Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls Strategy in July 2021, which committed to investing in a "What Works" Fund for tackling VAWG.
