Steps to develop a justice system impact report
Step 1: Using CLASS data, set out the key statistics on your interactions or collaborations with the justice system.
Step 2: Using the justice system survey data, create a chart that summarises the responses to the introductory questions, which includes types of justice agencies that responded to the survey and the positions that individual respondents held in the agency.
Step 3: If one or more key contacts did not respond to the survey, provide an explanation about the how this might influence the overall survey results.
Step 4: Using the justice system survey results, summarise the survey responses and their links to the intermediate outcomes, as shown in the table below:

Step 5: There may be relevant comments or quotes from the survey that can illustrate the intermediate outcomes achieved by your CLC’s work that can be reproduced.
Step 6: There may be other information that you have collected that is appropriate to include that further demonstrates the outcomes achieved. For example, a summary of data or material collected from other surveys completed.
