A home-centred approach to support children and young people in state care

该项目旨在确定家庭的概念如何能够加强对国家护理中年轻人的需求的了解和反应。它预计将为接受国家护理的年轻人产生关于家庭的新数据，并首次制定一种以家庭为中心的方法，以支持处于多种护理环境中的年轻人。预期成果包括制定和评估以家庭为中心的护理原则、实践指南和在线培训模块。这些措施应提供的好处包括为年轻人提供更好的体验和安置稳定性，为照料者提供有效培训，以及指导服务提供者和政府的工作的循证战略，并有可能改善年轻人的生活机会。

This project aims to determine how conceptions of home can enhance an understanding of and responsiveness to young people’s needs in state care. It expects to generate novel data on home for young people in state care and for the first time develop a home-centred approach to supporting young people across multiple care contexts. Expected outcomes include developing and evaluating home-centred care principles, practice guidelines and an online training module. These should provide benefits including better experiences and placement stability for young people, effective training for carers and evidence-informed strategies guiding the work of service providers and governments, with the potential to improve young people's life chances.
