This rapid review was conducted over an exceptionally short, two week period by a team of research with extensive experience with systematic reviews of evaluation literature, under the supervision of E.Eggins &\ua0L.Mazerolle. This review is to be considered as a rudimentary starting point in understanding the evidence for the effectiveness of 15 intervention categories put forward by the Dept\ua0of Child Safety, Youth &\ua0Women. This rapid review summarises the evidence for 15 intervention categories and their impact on the following focal outcomes: (a) family preservation and reunification; (b) child safety intervention or action; (c) child psychosocial outcomes (e.g. stability of living arrangements, mental and physical health, education, employment, involvement in the criminal justice system)
