social benefits for the community

Prävention

The total benefits of Centrepoint intervention are estimated to equal £22,174 per client. The majority of these arise through the impact of intervention on increased employment and resultant reduction in welfare benefits required and increase in taxes paid by Centrepoint clients; and reduction in crime, which lowers the costs to the criminal justice system. The other benefits relate to a reduction in the probability of mental health problems, and drug and alcohol abuse, and are relatively small.

Evaluierung der Aktivität

The overall approach has been implemented, to the extent possible, using data from public sources and data collected by Centrepoint on their clients. It was recognised at the start of this project that comprehensive information that would allow a full assessment of costs and benefits was unlikely to be available. The analysis includes sensitivity analysis wherever possible in order to test the reliability of data and/or any assumption made.
