Organisation: Department of Families, Fairness and Housing
Occupation: Community Services
Reference: VG/DFFH/COPL/673016
The Department of Families, Fairness and Housing (DFFH) works hard to create equal opportunities for all Victorians to live a safe, respected and valued life.
Our areas of focus are child protection, housing, disability, the prevention of family violence, multicultural affairs, LGBTIQA+ equality, veterans, women and youth.
The work we do benefits thousands of Victorians, particularly those who are disadvantaged and vulnerable.
We work in a variety of community-based settings, including people's homes, residential facilities and secure settings across metropolitan, rural and regional Victoria.
We are committed to developing and supporting a workforce that is well equipped and highly motivated.
All jobs can be worked flexibly, and we encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people and people from diverse backgrounds and abilities.
THE ROLE
The Family Group Conference Convenor will play a critical role in supporting vulnerable families to make decisions and develop and implement plans about the care and safety of their children following involvement with the Child Protection program to strengthen their engagement with services, and to divert families from further statutory involvement including the need for legal intervention.
The establishment of this position is part of a Family Group Conference pilot funded by the Victorian Government which will operate in a number of sites across the state.
The position will work closely with vulnerable families, service providers, other professionals and the broader child protection workforce to support best outcomes for vulnerable children.
The position will require high level written and verbal communication skills, highly developed policy and stakeholder engagement skills and an ability to be responsive to tasks including the provision of responses in a timely manner and will be required to contribute to a variety of work priorities within the unit.
This role may at times be required to operate outside normal office hours (at night).
ACCOUNTABILITIES INCLUDE
The Family Group Conference Convenor will have specific responsibility for working closely with vulnerable families, service providers, other professionals and the broader child protection workforce to improve outcomes for children known to the Child Protection Program.
The position will involve planning, preparing for and convening family group conferences to facilitate family-led decision-making, and the development of a plan to support families to keep children safe, engaged with services and reduce the likelihood of further child protection involvement.
It will play a critical role in the implementation and oversight of the Family Group Conference model pilot and will focus and input into service improvement and review.
