Abstract

The report is an evaluation of the I CAN Work programme, based on Individual Placement and Support (IPS). It describes how an IPS approach was adapted and implemented in North Wales (as I CAN Work) and lays out how the programme has worked locally.

Welsh Government (WG) and Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board (BCUHB), and later extended until December 2020. The programme was open to any individual in
or out of employment, with mild to moderate mental health issues, Individuals could refer themselves onto the programme, be referred by a health professional,
such as their GP or Community Mental Health Team (CMHT) or from another organisation such as Jobcentre Plus
