Elevating Family Preservation: Harnessing Sector Expertise for a Redesigned Service Model in NSW

Elevating Family Preservation: Harnessing Sector Expertise for a Redesigned Service Model in NSW

Fams submitted a brief to Minister Kate Washington this week, harnessing sector expertise for a redesigned service model for Family Preservation in NSW. The Minister has requested a meeting with Fams for further discussion in 2024. Click here to read the brief.

The key sector insights include:

-Centering child focused language in all aspects of service design

-TEI and Family Preservation as a continuum of care

-Rural, regional and remote specific considerations

-Disrupting the cycle of rereport and closure

– Flexibility in service models

-Adequate funding to ensure service capacity

We are committed to continuing our support in the Family Preservation sector leading up to recommissioning and beyond.
