What we do

Our team of trained support workers provide 24/7 tailored and trauma informed care to children and young people who are under the Guardianship of the Chief Executive of the Department for Child Protection, and for whom kinship care or foster care is not a current option.

Referral to this service is completed by the Department for Child Protection.
