Youth justice, Interventions
Youth justice family group conference
Youth justice family group conferences are held when tamariki or rangatahi are alleged to have offended or once the charges have been proven. These are convened and facilitated by youth justice coordinators.
Care
Reviewing caregivers
All our caregivers (including section 396 provider caregivers) must have a regular review of their approval status and support needs.
Assessment and planning
Child Protection Protocol (CPP)
All cases that require an investigation response are worked in consultation with Police and must follow the Child Protection Protocol.
Assessment and planning
Methamphetamine
We need to understand the impact of methamphetamine use on a person's ability to care for tamariki and rangatahi. When working with rangatahi who are using methamphetamine, we help them to minimise harm and risks to themselves and others.
Practice approach
Trauma-informed theory
Trauma-informed theory helps us understand the nature and impacts of trauma. It is aligned with our practice approach.
