Abstract

[Extract] The report presents evidence that directly addresses key recommendations from the Crime and Misconduct Commission of Inquiry into the Abuse of Children in Foster Care, which called for improvements in practice with parents of children and young people in care.

FIN is a representative grouping of practitioners, academics and parents with children in care seeking to advance practice and policy in working with parents of children and young people in the statutory child protection system. While it started in Queensland, FIN has also developed in New South Wales and Western Australia as considerable interest exists in those jurisdictions in working to improve outcomes for children and young people through more effective work with parents and other family members. Work has also taken place in the ACT. There is a developing interest in all Australian jurisdictions in the importance of this work. Queensland has, however, been the forerunner to national efforts.
