Our event, Every Child in Mind, No Postcode Left Behind, will include keynotes from Body Safety Australia’s founding CEO, Deanne Carson and Head of Education, Lauren French.

During the event you will have the opportunity to participate in our Community Parent Carer Workshop. The workshop equips parents, carers and the child’s entire village with the skills required to prevent childhood sexual abuse. We will dispel the myths around childhood sexual abuse, identify grooming behaviours, share online safety information and champion children’s image autonomy. All these skills build confidence in creating a child safe environment.
