Open Letter to the Government – Child In Focus, an alliance of individuals, professionals and beyond who want change in permanence

Dear Josh, During our recent discussions, you posed an important question: What should frontline professionals working with children in permanence be trained to understand?

This letter represents the collective response of the PATCH community and the emerging Child in Focus Network—a collaboration bringing together professionals, researchers and people with lived experience who share a common ambition: to improve outcomes for children living in permanence through knowledge, collaboration and evidence-informed practice.

Letter Written by PATCH Founder, Fiona
