520 _aFamily Matters reports set out what governments are doing to turn the tide on the over-representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in OOHC, and the outcomes for children and their families. The reports contribute to efforts to change the story by explaining the extent of the problem and reporting on progress towards implementing evidence-informed solutions that aim to eliminate, within a generation, the over-representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children living away from their parents and families in statutory OOHC. The report considers government efforts across all five elements of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Child Placement Principle: prevention, partnership, participation, placement and connection. These elements are discussed with a particular focus on strategies and progress relating to policies, practices and investments that are likely to drive early intervention and prevention to work with families to enable them to care safely for their children, and to keep children connected to their family, community, culture and country. Understanding and applying all five elements recognises that they are inter-related and work together to achieve the Family Matters campaign goal of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children growing up safe and cared for in family, community, and culture.
