I have been invited to attend an Family Group Conference, what do I have to do?
You have been identified as being important to the parent/s and
child/ren. They have given us details of people in their support network who
they trust and would like to be involved in a meeting that will help make plans
to keep the child/ren safe and well supported. If you are able to attend
the meeting your role is to share how you can support the family, listen to the
concerns raised by the Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) and make a
plan with the family to address these issues.
