• Multiple needs, requiring coordinated multi-agency support to support children and families to address complex and/ or entrenched needs
• Needforremedialinterventiontosupportchildrenatrisk
Effective transition into adult services for children and young people who need ongoing care and support, and providing the right support for young people leaving care are also important factors when planning and delivering services.
Regardless of the specific nature of their need, care and support for children and young people should contribute to the ten aspects of wellbeing set out in Part 2 of the SSWB Act. In particular, partners share a strategic commitment to:
• Promotephysicalandmentalhealthandemotionalwellbeing
• Supportwelfareanddevelopmentofchildrenandfamiliesbyworkingcollaboratively with parents, family networks and community services including education, training
and recreation providers
• Keepingchildrensafeandprotectingthemfromabuseandneglect
All planning for care and support for children and young people is guided by the United Nations Children Rights Convention and we will work together for children to ensure they are not harmed, are looked after and are kept safe (Article 19) and achieve their wellbeing outcomes (United Nations, 1989).
Wellbeing Outcomes that are particularly important to this group are:
Physical and mental health and emotional wellbeing
