Returning Home from Care looks at the experiences and practices surrounding tamariki (children) and rangatahi
(young people) cared for at home by their parent/s while in State custody. As at 30 June 2022, 12 percent of tamariki and rangatahi in care (627 tamariki and rangatahi) were living in this type of care arrangement.

Successive Oranga Tamariki Safety of Children in Care reports have found that tamariki and rangatahi in return or remain home arrangements are at higher risk of harm than those in other types of care.

This report found that safeguards and support for tamariki and rangatahi who either remain in, or return to, the care of their parents while in State custody are not always there, despite this group being at higher risk of harm than others in care. (From the website). Record #8515
