The CARE database registry provides a standardized approach to data collection to support Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) in their program evaluation process. This registry will link community and government data for further research in poverty reduction efforts. This will help inform long-term outcomes across sectors by engaging people impacted by poverty in community-based programs and understanding how these programs may affect their access to government services.

The POP Centre registry collects data directly from children and families who have been referred to the POP Centre.  This registry will help support an analysis on the status of children’s rights and associated health as well as social outcomes of children whose rights are not being fulfilled. The implications this approach could have on these children may include short-term benefits as well as a more inclusive picture of the child’s risk factors. This will allow professionals to intervene in a timely manner and government decision makers to implement evidence-based policies which consider children’s rights.

The data is derived from participants who received a community referral or have self-referred, and have been enrolled in the PCAP program. The purpose of this registry is to evaluate the program and to track progress of participants. Participating in the PCAP registry helps improve the program through valuable feedback and data, enhancing support services for families. It also provides personal benefits such as progress tracking, access to resources, and a sense of community, all while contributing to important research and policy development.
