evidence summary begins by considering the importance of place. This leads to
a discussion of why different approaches to services and service delivery are
required, including a brief description of recent changes in the conditions
in which families are raising young children and the complex social problems
we face. Consideration is given to defining place-based approaches and their
evolution in Australia, citing examples from the United States (US), United
Kingdom (UK), Canada and Australia.
