註釋A Step Up for Our Kids (A Step Up) is the ACT Government's Out of Home Care Strategy that sets out the provision of out of home care services to children and young people at risk of coming into care or who are in care. A Step Up aims to improve outcomes for children and young people in care by providing flexible, child focused services that are based around a therapeutic, trauma-informed response. It places a strong emphasis on preventing children and young people from entering care and moving them into permanent families when they can't return home. The vision for A Step Up is - Children and young people in care - growing up strong, safe and connected. A key component of A Step Up is to consider ways to empower children and young people to be involved in individual case decisions and more broadly across policy and practice development. On 24 November 2018, the Community Services Directorate (CSD) organised a Youth Roundtable for young people in out of home care and young people who have had involvement in out of home care. A Roundtable is a valuable method for understanding people's experiences. The views in this report, also reiterate findings of larger scale research projects. The topic for the Roundtable was - What has been your experience of case planning? The event was co-facilitated by the CREATE Foundation and the Youth Coalition, with additional assistance from the Australian Catholic University, Institute of Child Protection Studies.
