The QAF Refresh 2009
The Quality Assessment Framework (QAF) has been a key tool for Supporting People and housing related support services since 2003. The new refreshed QAF was published in April 2009. Sitra is responsible for the maintenance of the QAF, any queries or concerns about the QAF please e-mail sitrahelpline@sitra.org
Understanding the QAF refresh: a Sitra guide
Sitra were fundamental in the drafting, piloting and reviewing of the refreshed QAF and as a result we have acquired a detailed knowledge of the QAF and how it can be implemented.
This publication is a collection of articles explaining the new QAF in detail which have appeared in our membership magazine, the Sitra bulletin over the past year. It also sets out how providers in the housing with support and care sector can benefit from our expertise through the conferences, training and consultancy we offer.
