dc.description.abstractThis report presents the findings of the outcome-based evaluation of the Beautiful Gate programme for vulnerable children. The evaluation seeks to ascertain the extent to which the programme is producing the intended results and whether those results include unintended side effects. The Beautiful Gate programme is a social programme aimed at providing care to vulnerable children, their families and the community. The objectives of the programme are to meet the medical, physical, emotional and social needs of vulnerable children, particularly those that are affected by HIV/AIDS in the communities of the Nyanga Health District in Cape Town, South Africa. The programme provides an interim safe environment for children, whilst actively working towards their reintegration into society. The evaluation utilised a descriptive design. Multiple data collection methods were used, which included a questionnaire-based survey and review of programme records. A paper based questionnaire was administered to the programme staff, which consisted of caregivers, administration staff and pre-school teachers. Results from this evaluation study revealed that children who participate III this programme exhibit improved quality of life. Research findings have shown that the children's welfare, personal development and social conditions significantly improved through access to a safe environment, proper nutrition, medical services, education, as well as psychosocial support.en_ZA
