Children in OOHC receive various supports, including access to education, healthcare, counseling, and opportunities for personal development.

The primary goals are to ensure the safety, stability, and well-being of children and young people, providing them with a supportive environment where they can grow.

OOHC can be provided by foster care and residential care facilities run by government or non-government organizations.

OOHC refers to arrangements where children and young people who cannot live with their birth families are placed in alternative living situations or residential care.
