Synopsis

Concurrent planning puts the child's needs at the centre of social work decision making, with the intention of reducing the amount of time spent awaiting permanent placement. Using this approach, a child is placed with a potential family to address the causes of the child's removal. If the child cannot return to the birth family within a determined period, a decision is made to seek an alternative family placement - thus preventing multiple moves, drift and delay in the care system. This study supports the advantages of this approach, demanding a professional attitude shift.
