The Outcomes Framework places young South Australians, birth to 18, at the centre of 5 key Areas:

• Wellbeing
• Health
• Safety
• Education
• Preparing for adulthood.

It provides a shared goal to guide State authorities to develop strategies, objectives, policies and programs.

• The Charter for Children and Young People outlines 20 aspirational conditions, aligning with the 5 key Areas. The Charter is an integral component of the Outcomes Framework and was informed by the voices of young South Australians.
• The Charter Ambassador Program enables young South Australians to engage in civics, build connections beyond their communities, promote the Charter, initiate positive change and engage in experiences that provide inspiration for their future.
• South Australia’s Report Card for Children and Young People uses population-level data to track the Measures in the Outcomes Framework, to reveal current trends and areas for improvement. Where possible, we disaggregate the data into relevant groups of interest.
