Mission Australia seeks to engage a skilled and experienced evaluator/consultancy to collaboratively design and deliver a participatory evaluation of the Person Led, Strength-Based Coaching Program (PLS) pilot in Greater Western Sydney.

The PLS program is a three year ‘test and learn’ piece of work that will look at the power of relationships first and person led, strengths-based coaching. This response attempts to put the person in control, providing access to personalised, strength-based support and connecting people to real world opportunities and lasting, meaningful relationships.

The purpose of the evaluation is to examine the appropriateness and effectiveness of the PLS program. The objectives are to:

• Assess the implementation of the PLS program, including the appropriateness of providing access to person led, strengths-based support focused on relationships.

• Identify any barriers, enablers and service model components that are critical to establish, implement, and expand the PLS, as well as integration with Mission Australia Housing.

• Understand and evidence the impact of PLS, including increased independence, health and wellbeing, community connections and sustaining safe housing.

• Assess the value proposition of providing person-led support in comparison to other support coordination/case management service models.
