In June 2023, it was announced that the Royal Foundation Centre for Early Childhood had granted £50,000 towards a study in partnership with the Institute of Health Visiting and the [[University of Oxford]], to evaluate the use of the Alarm Distress Baby Scale (ADBB) in the UK. Catherine had first observed the ADBB model's implementation, which is used to assess how babies are interacting with the world around them, focusing on behaviors like eye contact, facial expressions, vocalization and activity levels, during her solo trip to Denmark in February 2022. The trial ran over a period of 10 months at the [[South Warwickshire NHS Foundation Trust]] and [[Humber Teaching NHS Foundation Trust]]<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-65916889|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230615122621/https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-coventry-warwickshire-65916889|title=Kate meets Nuneaton NHS staff studying distress in babies|work=BBC News|first=Susie|last=Rack|date=15 June 2023|archive-date=15 June 2023|access-date=15 June 2023|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite magazine|url=https://people.com/kate-middleton-infant-wellbeing-with-health-visitors-7546607|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230615174019/https://people.com/kate-middleton-infant-wellbeing-with-health-visitors-7546607|title=Kate Middleton Holds Hands with an Adorable Infant During Latest Baby-Filled Outing!|magazine=People|first=Simon|last=Perry|date=15 June 2023|archive-date=15 June 2023|access-date=15 June 2023|url-status=live}}</ref> and returned positive results with involved health visitors reporting an increase in their understanding and abilities in deciphering infant behavior, consequently aiding parent-child interactions.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://centreforearlychildhood.org/latest-learnings/news/positive-results-early-years-trial/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240321132111/https://centreforearlychildhood.org/latest-learnings/news/positive-results-early-years-trial/|title=Overwhelmingly positive” results for Royal Foundation-backed early years trial as report recommends expansion to more UK health visiting teams.|website=Centre for Early Childhood|date=21 March 2024|archive-date=21 March 2024|access-date=21 March 2024|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2024/03/21/catherine-princess-wales-works-from-home-early-years-eases/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240321002308/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2024/03/21/catherine-princess-wales-works-from-home-early-years-eases/|title=Princess of Wales eases back to work with childcare project|work=The Telegraph|date=21 March 2024|first=Hannah|last=Furness|access-date=21 March 2024|url-access=subscription|archive-date=21 March 2024|url-status=live}}</ref>

In June 2023, William launched Homewards after two years of development. The initiative aims to tackle homelessness in six pilot locations across the UK within five years with an initial £500,000 seed funding allocated for each area by the Royal Foundation. The locations are [[Lambeth]], [[Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole]], [[Newport, Wales|Newport]], [[Northern Ireland]], [[Aberdeen]], and [[Sheffield]]. The programme is aimed at providing permanent homes, rather than temporary accommodation, for the people in need. The initiative will also help local coalitions working on the issue by giving them access to experts and financial backers. A local leader will be appointed in each area, who will oversee the development of the project and bring together local authorities, prisons, schools, and housing associations. A unique plan will be developed in each area with help from 16 charities, landowners, local housing associations, and major retailers.<ref name="Homewards">{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2023/06/26/prince-of-wales-launch-homewards-end-homelessness/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230625230951/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/royal-family/2023/06/26/prince-of-wales-launch-homewards-end-homelessness/|title=Prince William says his life's work will be to end homelessness|work=The Telegraph|first=Victoria|last=Ward|date=26 June 2023|archive-date=25 June 2023|access-date=26 June 2023|url-status=live}}</ref>
