AGED_M_END_DT_FINANCIAL_YEAR_END_DATE |
A percentage of unique/individual children and young people involved in Risk of Significant Harm (ROSH) reports, divided by the total number of children and young people (CYP) reported to DCJ in ROSH reports.
ROSH threshold screening occurs at the DCJ Child Protection Helpline. A child or young person is at ROSH if the circumstances that are causing concern for their safety, welfare or wellbeing are present to a significant extent. This means it is sufficiently serious to warrant a response by a statutory authority irrespective of a family's consent (see References below).

Caseworkers in DCJ Child Protection Helpline apply the Structured Decision Making (SDM) Screening and Response Priority (SCRPT) tools to reports to determine the level of response category.
The District reported in this measure reflects where an Aboriginal child/young person’s case plan is held at their first ROSH report in the reporting period.
