Sector Update: Family Preservation Transition and Reform

Sector Update: Family Preservation Transition and Reform

We know this is a time of uncertainty for many in our sector. That’s why we’re speaking up and standing together.

We continue to meet regularly with our fellow Peaks – AbSec and ACWA – because we’re stronger when we work in partnership. Together, we’re advocating for a transition process that is clear and genuinely collaborative.

What we’re calling for:

  • Collaborative planning between DCJ, Peaks and providers to support a smooth transition
  • Clear and timely information about tender outcomes and key milestones
  • Clarity for families currently engaged with Family Preservation services
  • Support for the workforce impacted by procurement changes
  • Investment in workforce development to build capability and confidence

We’re committed to keeping the sector informed and involved. On Monday 17 November at 1pm, we’ll be co-hosting a joint session with AbSec and ACWA to continue our consultation with providers.
