Suitable support

A father in crisis sought our help to find services and supported living for his son, a 15-year-old with complex special needs. He told us his son was prone to violence and had been taken to hospital by police on several occasions.

RESULT: We spoke with the involved agencies and Ministry staff to confirm the family’s needs were treated with urgency. We also reviewed the efforts of various service agencies to co-ordinate services and supports, including an intensive treatment program for the teen. Eventually, he was successfully transitioned to a suitable supported living option in a new home.
