Youth Work Court Guides
With thanks to David Gunter, 2013
Youth workers often need to get court orders for young people, especially if they have government contracts for looking after state wards. The following documents outline the Victorian system. These are generally similar to systems in other states, and could be a good guide to the kinds of things you need to do in your state.
Please note:
• Legislation and regulations change from time to time so you should check for updates before using these guidelines.
