<p>Our Early Intervention Youth Fund of £22 million is already supporting 29 projects
in England and Wales. Over £17 million has already been allocated to projects delivering
interventions to young people at risk of criminal involvement, gang exploitation and
county lines.</p><p>We will shortly be appointing an independent evaluation partner
who will support projects with their monitoring arrangements and will gather qualitative
and quantitative data. This work will contribute to a programme wide evaluation, including
an overview of what we have learnt about good practice. The projects will also be
required to provide regular updates on their progress as part of their grant agreements.</p>
