Looked After Children Theme Group
The LAC Group has representatives from a range of agencies such as Health and the voluntary
sector, and Council Departments, which meet regularly to examine issues particularly relating
to the needs of Looked After Children and Young People in Dundee, and to collectively develop
and implement strategies for addressing these needs and improving life outcomes for looked
after children and young people.
The term "looked after children" (LAC) refers to children and young people who are subject to a
legal supervision requirement, who may continue to live with parents or other family members,
as well as those children and young people who are required to live with foster carers or in a
residential setting. Those children who are looked after away from their own home are
considered to be "looked after and accommodated".
Children and young people can become "looked after" for many reasons.
These could include:
•
physical abuse or neglect;
•
emotional abuse;
•
sexual abuse;
•
some may have suffered the death of a parent, or have parents who can’t look after
them properly because of illness, lifestyle or other family circumstances;
•
others may have disabilities and many different needs; and
•
a small number are looked after and accommodated due to offences they have
committed.
