Wellbeing of children and young people in care 2010-11

The Guardian’s Office monitors the circumstances of children under the guardianship, or in the custody, of the Minister. The feedback and findings collected during monitoring activities are reported in detail to the agencies involved and to the relevant Minister.

In the 2010-11 report we focussed on children’s safety, security and stability of placement, contact with family, friends and cultural community and participation in decision-making.

The report Wellbeing of Children and Young People in Care 2010-11 summarises the collected information.[spacer height=”15px”]

If you feel that your rights are not being met, and you are not being listened to, we can help.
