Voluntary out-of-home care

Now known as Specialised Substitute Residential Care (SSRC) arrangements. SSRC is an arrangement between a parent and an organisation for a child to receive care away from their usual home, for three or more nights in any seven-day period.   

The child is not in need of care and protection, and there are no court orders. Support is primarily funded by the National Disability Insurance Agency (NDIS).
