ABSTRACT
This chapter reviews three emerging therapeutic residential care approaches, showcasing the breadth of development currently under way internationally. It also examines the limitations associated with each therapeutic residential care approach, identifying the importance of the ‘do no harm’ principle; developing understanding of what therapeutic residential care entails and for whom; collecting evidence to demonstrate how various practice and systemic components associate with outcomes; and improving implementation both within residential care services and across the wider OOHC service system.
