No, this is not relevant to the cultural plan. The goal of a cultural plan is to provide details of the child’s Aboriginal culture and to clearly map out how a child is going to remain connected to their family, community and culture. The plan should always be strengths based and in the best interests of the child, and should only focus on cultural information, family contact plans, cultural and identity specific goals and a return to country planning.

Cultural plans are for the child, so information included should not only represent the voice of the child but should also be written in a child-friendly format. Information should be objective and not include protective concerns, personal opinions and other information that is not relevant to the cultural well-being and development of the child.
