DCP Home

The DCP operates a 'residential care facility' in Banjup. In that facility, the DCP cares for up to 4 children between the ages of 10 and 17. The residential care facility is the children's primary place of residence. The DCP closely supervises the children in its care and provides therapeutic services to them.
The DCP has committed that it will not place a child in the Banjup home who presents a current risk of fire setting, animal cruelty, or sexual aggression.

​

The DCP encourages Banjup residents to interact respectfully and respect the rights and privacy of the children living in the ‘Residential Group Home’ in a similar way that they would other neighbours.

If you have a general concern about the DCP home, then you can you call the home direct at the numbers below. We advise against knocking on the front door as this can unsettle the children.

If you, as a Banjup resident, encounter any child on your property, then call the Police at Cockburn. They are familiar with the DCP home and its residents. If you are threatened by the child then call 000.

Do not engage in a shouting match with a trespasser. Do not attempt to eject physically a trespasser from your property. Just call the Police.
