In Queensland, the Department of Child Safety, Seniors and Disability Services partners with non-government organisations to provide care arrangements for children and young people in out-of-home care.
The residential care system operates in a challenging environment of growing demand, increased complexity of family needs, and pressure across other care service options, such as foster care.
To help identify solutions to the current demands on the child protection system, we are seeking input from individuals and organisations on a number of key areas.
If you are a care provider, stakeholder, expert, or most importantly, child or young person in care, we want to hear from you.
