Steps2Life offers allied health and behavior support services through DCJ funding, collaborating with caseworkers, carers, and families. Our services comply with funding guidelines, care plans, and reporting requirements.
DCJ funding provides government-supported services for individuals and families who require assistance. It may cover therapy, assessments, and interventions based on approved care plans and individual needs.
DCJ funding packages support individuals needing structured therapy, behaviour support, and multidisciplinary care. Services are coordinated with caseworkers and aligned with documented goals, safety plans, and placement arrangements.
Steps2Life works alongside the Department of Communities and Justice (DCJ) to provide approved therapeutic and allied health services. Our support is aligned with documented care plans, placement arrangements, and confirmed DCJ funding packages.
DCJ-funded therapy includes speech therapy, occupational therapy, and counselling to support communication, daily living skills, emotional regulation, and adjustment. Services are delivered in alignment with approved goals and care plans.
We provide functional capacity, communication, learning, and daily living assessments to support DCJ care planning. Reports are aligned with documentation standards and help caseworkers and carers plan appropriate ongoing support.
Our team develops structured behaviour support plans and practical strategies for children and young people, working collaboratively with carers, schools, and caseworkers to support safety and participation.
We work with parents, carers, and kinship and foster families to provide guidance and consistent strategies that support children affected by trauma, neglect, or attachment disruption across home and care environments.
Referrals for DCJ-funded services are typically made by a DCJ caseworker or authorised representative following funding approval. Once a referral is received, our team will confirm funding details, discuss the individual’s needs and goals, and arrange an initial appointment or assessment. We work closely with caseworkers throughout the process to ensure services align with approved care plans and reporting requirements.
Steps2Life maintains close collaboration with DCJ caseworkers, carers, and support networks to ensure therapy remains consistent with placement arrangements, safety plans, and documented care goals. We provide regular updates and reporting in line with DCJ requirements, helping caseworkers and carers stay informed and supporting continuity of care, particularly where placement circumstances may change.
