In New South Wales, Australia, the Department of Youth and Community Services is empowered by statute to deal with cases of child abuse and neglect. Its child protection services include the Montrose Child Life Protection Unit which is designed to support and complement the work of both the Intake Service, Field Service and most importantly the work of child protective facilities in the community. The service has intake crisis counselling and call out resources; maintains a central register; provides a facility for crisis residential care for children and families, diagnostic assessment, and a day programme. The emphasis in service delivery in New South Wales in the area of child protection is on multidisciplinary intervention. The Department of Youth and Community Services is involved in promoting interagency cooperation and co-ordination. Over and above a philosophy that underlies service delivery is the Montrose Unit's involvement in sensitising the community to the difficult and often demanding role of parenting. Montrose represents an attempt to create an environment where parenting myths can be examined from a reality base and strategies implemented for reeducation.
在澳大利亚新南威尔士州,青年与社区服务部受法规授权处理虐待和忽视儿童的案件。其儿童保护服务包括蒙特罗斯儿童生命保护股,旨在支持和补充接待服务、实地服务的工作,最重要的是支持社区儿童保护设施的工作。该服务提供接待危机咨询和应急资源;维护中央登记册;为儿童和家庭提供危机住宿护理设施、诊断评估和日间项目。新南威尔士州在儿童保护领域的服务提供重点是多学科干预。青年与社区服务部参与促进机构间的合作与协调。除了服务提供所依据的理念之外,蒙特罗斯股还参与提高社区对育儿这一困难且往往要求很高的角色的认识。蒙特罗斯代表了一种尝试,即创造一个环境,在这个环境中,可以从现实基础审视育儿神话,并实施再教育策略。
