Launch of NAPCAN and AIFS Research Findings

As part of National Child Protection Week 2016, NAPCAN and AIFS are pleased to launch the document Stronger communities, safer children: Findings from recent Australian research on the importance of community in keeping children safe.

In particular, we urge governments and decision-makers to consider these findings in order to prioritise projects that contribute to community and focus on the prevention of abuse and neglect.
