This project listened to young people in Australia who live in homes with youth workers because they’ve had tough times with their families or foster carers. These homes are called ‘therapeutic residential care’ or ‘resi care’ for short. The researchers wanted to know what makes it easier or harder for young people in resi care to learn to trust people and to feel safe. The researchers talked with young people, staff, and managers in resi care homes to learn about what works well and what could be better. They also invited young people to fill out a survey with questions about their experiences. This document shares what was learned from the young people only.
