Legal matters

Your agency will make sure you have all the information you need to carry out your role in a way that complies with the law, so you’re not expected to have in-depth legal knowledge of the Acts and Regulations that define out-of-home-care. However, you play a vital role in promoting and protecting the rights of children and young people in out-of-home care.
