  How should family services respond to 'children in need'? - Publications - Australian Institute of Family Studies ...
It is predicated on ecological and holistic theoretical perspectives that link the needs of children to the extent to which parents are responding appropriately, and to the family and environmental factors that may impact on the child and parenting capacity.

In order to transform outcomes for looked-after children, we need to see sustained investment in fostering from the government, and a commitment from local authorities to provide foster carers with the resources and support they need to do their jobs.
