19.01.2022 National Child Protection Week (6 12 September 2020), is a reminder to all Australians of their collective responsibility to prioritise the safety and wellbei...ng of children. This includes access to essentials such as food and healthcare, as well as creating positive and secure environments. Children often see or hear violence between their parents - 65% of women who had children in their care when they experienced violence by a current or former partner reported that the children had seen or heard the violence. This childhood trauma has longterm, lifelong effects so we must continue to put the wellbeing of children first. To celebrate this year’s theme of ‘Putting Children First’, NAPCAN Play Your Part is hosting a series of thought-provoking events and webinars this week. Discover how you can make a difference by registering today: https://www.napcan.org.au/ #playyourpart #childprotectionweek
