Children do well when they feel safe and supported

SCFC aims to build resilience, confidence, emotional literacy and help-seeking skills in children. 

It also reinforces the collective role that we all have to listen to children and keep them safe.

On this page you can:
  • Read and listen to Safer Communities for Children stories
  • Purchase resources
  • Register for a one-day workshop to learn about how you can use SCFC with children, families and communities to promote child safety and wellbeing.

TESTIMONIAL

I learned that children also have the right to give consent, and that we must always ask for their permission before engaging them in any activity, regardless of whether we are their aunty, grandma or mum. I gained a deeper understanding of the importance of listening to children’s needs, not only what they say, but also their physical cues.

LISTEN TO A STORY

Register for a free SCFC workshop in the NT, supported by the Northern Territory Government.

Join us as we explore the SCFC materials which you can adapt and use in your work with children and families. Learn how the SCFC approach can fit within a child safeguarding approach in your organisation and community. Together, we can work to ensure that every child, in every community, is free from harm, every day.

Upon completion of the full day workshop and return of the post-training survey, you will be given access to a range of electronic resources to support you in using Safer Communities for Children stories and resources. You will also be able to purchase printed copies of the Safer Communities for Children kit at a discounted price
