Leeds City Council awarded a contract to Adoption Matters for the provision of Early Permanence practice and development services.

The contract, valued at AUD 49,353, involves Voluntary Adoption Agencies (VAAs) working together as an alliance to recruit, assess, prepare, and support adopters to provide Early Permanence Placements for children aged 2 years and over, both individually and in sibling groups.

The objectives include increasing the number of EP placements, improving the quality of EP placement practice, ensuring appropriate support for EP carers and placements before, during, and after placement, ensuring equal and timely access to early placements across all areas, incorporating adopter and birth parent voices into EP delivery nationally and regionally, and identifying areas for potential innovation in EPP.
