Comments: | A leaving care plan to assist transition from care to independent living must commence from when the young person turns 15 years of age. This count includes people who are aged 15 years on the night of 30 June of the reference year. Note that in Victoria transition from care planning commences 12 months prior to the intended time the child/young person will leave care—as such, not all children aged 15 years currently require a leaving care plan. |
