The impact of maternal vs paternal imprisonment is very different; the negative health consequences on children are likely to be much greater if a mother is imprisoned. The number of children affected by non-custodial justice involvement is likely to be far greater given the higher number of women under probation supervision. However, no official statistics or estimates are collected for this population. The purpose of the CHAMPION (children whose mothers are involved in the criminal justice system in Dorset &amp; Hampshire, UK \u2013 developing health and social care outcome indicators) study is to develop a better understanding of the evidence of the impact of maternal contact with the CJS (Criminal Justice System) on children and to establish a set of core outcome indicators for monitoring and evaluating affected children\u2019s health and well-being.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and analysis<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>(i) A scoping review of the health impacts of maternal vs paternal imprisonment, (ii) qualitative focus groups and interviews with adults whose mother was imprisoned when they were children and children of mothers who have either been or currently are in prison or have received community order sentences.
