Peakcare consider 'secure care' option for Queensland children

13/3/2013

 
Witnesses appearing at public hearings of the inquiry as well as written submissions lodged by individuals and organisations have raised the introduction of a ‘secure care’ option for children in Queensland as a matter for consideration by the Commission.  The topic also receives attention in the Commission’s February 2013 Discussion Paper which notes that the Commission has “heard evidence relating to the establishment of a therapeutic secure care model of placement, or a ‘containment model’”. PeakCare is pleased to have produced the attached Discussion Paper entitled Secure Care – Needed or Not? to prompt further exploration and consideration by our member agencies and supporters about issues concerning secure care. You can also link to the Discussion Paper from our website.

We would be pleased to receive your comments and feedback by close of business, Thursday, 21st March 2013. This should be sent to our Office Manager, Gary Roberts at groberts@peakcare.org.au.
