57  The Family

Outcome: Each family receives family-centred supports that are culturally inclusive, responsive, and focus on their strengths.

         To achieve this outcome, the following indicators should be demonstrated:
           (1) Each support plan is based on child and family choice and control and is undertaken with the family.
           (2) The family's expertise and knowledge about their child is recognised and respected.
           (3) The family's strengths, needs and priorities are identified by working in partnership with the family.
           (4) Each support plan is flexible and individualised to reflect the child's and family members' preferences and learning styles.
           (5) Each support plan is culturally responsive and respectful of the family's cultural beliefs and their community.
           (6) Information and supports are provided in a clear, easy to understand and flexible manner by integrating the support into the child's everyday routine.
           (7) The strengths of the family are promoted and developed and the family is assisted to develop their own network of formal and informal resources, with recognition that positive outcomes for children do not rely solely on therapeutic child-focused programs.
           (8) Work is undertaken with the family to inform and strengthen their participation in, and contribution to, the child's learning and development.
