Family reunification services
Parents/carers of children in alternative are entitled to family reunification services. If risk management failed and children were removed to alternative care social workers will assist parents in determining:
- reconstructive actions towards family reunification
- parental skills counselling or workshops
- professional counselling to address deeper psychological needs
- life skill counselling or workshops for parents and children
- referral to trusted service providers when specific specialised services needed are not provided by the office
- assistance in implementing the family reunification plan in order for family reunification to succeed
