TEEN CRISIS ACCOMMODATION
111. Hon NICK GOIRAN to the parliamentary
secretary representing the Minister for Child Protection:
I refer to the government's
commitment to establish teen crisis accommodation in the northern suburbs.
(1) How many young people will be
able to stay at the accommodation facility at any one time?
(2) In which calendar month is the
teen accommodation scheduled to be operational?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice
of the question. The $3.4 million for crisis accommodation for teenagers in
Perth's northern suburbs was announced by the Premier on 6 January 2021
as part of a new $58.6 million package to support at-risk youth.
(1) Six young people will be able
to stay at the facility.
(2) The
government will work with Youth Futures WA to deliver this service. An
announcement on the development and opening of the new facility will be made in
due course.
