Definition
The Aboriginal Intensive Family Based Service (IFBS) provides an intensive, time-limited, home based program for Aboriginal families in crisis (including extended family). Children in these families are at risk of entering an out-of-home placement due to protective concerns or have been placed in out-of-home care (OOHC). The primary intended outcome of Aboriginal IFBS is that the crisis is stabilised and Aboriginal children at imminent risk of placement in OOHC can stay at home with their family and community in a safe, stable and nurturing environment.
The Goals Table uses data from the IFBS connect portal and includes the KiDS Number plus additional demographic information for each child in the service.
