The National Association for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect warns that the Royal Commission into Youth Detention in the Northern Territory must this time be followed by some real action if it is to have any value.
In particular, they want to see prevention-focused outcomes identified in previous reports and inquiries into the Child Protection and Juvenile Justice Systems in the Northern Territory implemented as a matter of urgency.
NAPCAN President Teresa Scott says those recommendations, fully implemented, would go a long way to preventing children and young people having to come into contact with the Child Protection and Juvenile Justice Systems in the first place.
NAPCAN is happy to announce the release of the 2016 National Child Protection Week (4 to 10 September) posters.
NAPCAN, Healthy Development Adelaide and The Australian Centre for Child Protection are hosting the South Australian National Child Protection Week event on Wednesday 7 September, 2016.
Now is the time to register your mailing address and place your bulk orders for the 2016 National Child Protection Week posters.
The Progress Report was launched on 10 June by the Australian Child Rights Taskforce and calls on the government to set a national agenda for children and young people.
The pieces were created during the Love Bites program presented by dedicated facilitators in the region and were displayed by Gladstone Regional Art Gallery and Museum.
Listen to the young people’s discussion with the Commissioner about education, bullying, the environment, multicultural and religious diversity and how to develop good communities.
