Publications
CCPS produces a range of Policy Briefings, Discussion Documents, Research Papers and Conference Reports as part of its work. Copies of our most recent publications are available within this section, by following the adjoining links.
Some of our older publications are not available electronically. If you are searching for a past publication produced by CCPS which you are not able to find within this website, please contact the CCPS office.
CCPS also retains an archive of all the publications produced as part of the Voluntary Sector Social Services Workforce Unit (VSSSWU), which operated from 2007 and closed in March 2011. The Workforce Unit commissioned and devised research projects to improve the knowledge and picture of the voluntary sector social services workforce.
