ABSTRACT Considerations of safety have long been at the forefront of work with children and youth in out-of-home care, though the conceptualization has evolved significantly over the years. In particular, the awareness of safety as a fundamental component of relational connection and well-being for children and youth in care has informed a new paradigm for these environments. The introduction of Trauma-Informed Care (TIC) has resulted in more in-depth explorations of the meaning of safety for both young people and their carers in order to promote both organizational and individual health. Determining what safety means for individuals both within and outside of this system of care is a critical point of connection and intervention. This practice concept paper reviews the existing literature addressing safety within child and youth care and child protection environments, including conceptualizing safety and intervention approaches which emphasize the development of safety vocabularies and skills of safety planning with children and youth who have experienced harm within the context of relationships. Using the lens of child and youth care environments, the application of these concepts is considered at the level of improved practice and future opportunities for research.

当关系成为触发因素时：儿童和青少年保育中的安全与联系悖论

摘要尽管多年来，概念的发展已经十分显着，但安全考虑一直是儿童和青少年在家庭外护理工作中的最重要问题。尤其是，安全意识是关爱中的儿童和青少年的关系连接和幸福感的基本组成部分，为这些环境提供了新的范例。创伤知情护理（TIC）的引入导致对年轻人及其护理人员的安全意义进行了更深入的探索，以促进组织和个人健康。确定安全对本护理系统内外的个人意味着什么是联系和干预的关键点。该实践概念文件回顾了有关儿童和青少年保育和儿童保护环境中安全性的现有文献，包括概念化安全性和干预方法，这些方法强调了针对在以下情况下遭受伤害的儿童和青少年的安全词汇和安全计划技能的发展关系。从儿童和青少年看护环境的角度出发，在改善实践水平和未来研究机会的层面上考虑了这些概念的应用。
