Safe and Supported: How is Australia coming together at the national level to protect our children?
Children thrive in safe and supported communities.
But right now, many families aren’t receiving the support they need, and children are experiencing serious adversity.
What do our national leaders think needs to happen to create environments that enable children and young people to reach their full potential?
In this conversation we will hear from representatives who have worked on the new Safe & Supported: National Framework for Protecting Australia’s Children and hear how it will bring together government, services and communities to reduce child abuse and neglect and its integenerational impacts.
Come along to find out more about how this will be transformed into action, and the part that we can all play, in our many roles across government, child and family services, community organisations, families or as individuals.
We look forward to hearing from:
- Jamie Crosby, CEO, Families Australia
- Catherine Liddle, CEO, SNAICC
- Tim Crosier, Manager Children’s Policy Branch, Department of Social Services
- Fiona Ward, Deputy Chief Executive, Department for Child Protection
Facilitated by: Anne Hollonds, National Children’s Commissioner
