• Identify the efficiency and effectiveness of the Initiative from the perspective of all intervention components.
• Identify transferable examples of good practice and provide lessons learned for the implementation of the new integrated model of social services in Bacău County.
• Identify certain limitations and constraints for the implementation of SAI components in schools, families, communities.
• Generate relevant information for decision-makers, supporting local, regional and national policy development to prevent and diminish school dropout and absenteeism.
The evaluation focused on finding answers to the following questions:
