56  The Child

Outcome: Each child participant accesses supports that promote and respect their legal and human rights, support their development of functional skills, and enable them to participate meaningfully and be included in everyday activities with their peers.

         To achieve this outcome, the following indicators should be demonstrated:
           (1) Knowledge and understanding of each participant's legal and human rights, and incorporation of those rights into everyday practice.
           (2) Implementation of practices and procedures to manage risk with a focus on creating a safe environment for children.
           (3) Compliance with all relevant state and territory legislation relating to the reporting of risk of harm to children.
           (4) Facilitation of the active involvement of the participant's support network in the participant's development.
           (5) Alternative arrangements for the continuity of supports for each child participant, when changes or interruptions are unavoidable, are:
              (a) explained and agreed with them (taking into account their capacity to understand and agree to alternative arrangements) and their family; and
              (b) delivered in a way that is appropriate to their needs, preferences and goals.
