This article is written as a bold opinion piece. It stems from the fact that once again we are seeing reports of abuse in residential care while at the same time there are calls for the reclaiming of residential care as a positive choice for children and youth. Yet there seems to be confusion as to exactly what function these programs should perform in the broader out-of-home care system. There are also important questions about the knowledge and skills that staff would require if such programs are to be non-abusive. A rejoinder to this opinion piece would be welcome.

In April 2016, an international work group on therapeutic residential care (TRC) met at Loughborough University in England (see Appendix A for the list of 32 participants from 11 countries). The purpose was to plan and endorse a definition of TRC, to develop key principles stemming from that definition and to promote a consensus statement about TRC that had international standing. Given the current world-wide discussion about TRC and its place in the continuum of child welfare services this was an important goal.
