What we do
Helping Community Solutions delivers stable, evidence-based residential care for children and young people in the CEO’s care who are unable to remain safely in the care of their family, from emergency care arrangements through to long-term care arrangements until a young person leaves care at 18.
Evidence-based care arrangements grounded in Therapeutic Crisis Intervention and trauma-informed practice.
Safe, stable residential care for children and young people who need a care arrangement at short notice.
Stable care arrangements and trusted relationships for children and young people in care through to leaving care and transitioning to adulthood.
Serving Perth metro and regional WA, including the Midwest and Southwest districts.
Our approach
Every care arrangement at Helping Community Solutions is guided by our Model of Care, developed in 2021 in line with the Delivering Community Services in Partnership Policy. It brings together evidence-based practice and the applied knowledge of our care teams to support children and young people in care to heal from trauma and achieve stability and continuity.
We work in small, stable, structured teams that give children and young people the consistency and calm they need, and we respond to behaviours of concern by understanding their causes rather than reacting to them.
