18.01.2022 Parents be proud: This prestigious journal says: "Do what they're doing in Qld!" (More or less ) "Policy recommendations: Despite success overseas, peer parent and family advocacy remains almost entirely absent from Australian child protection systems. The green shoot initiatives that are emerging are new and vulnerable. However, implementation more broadly is very achievable if properly supported. Peer advocacy can be readily integrated into our system, is cost effective an...d will make a significant and long lasting difference. 1. Peer parent and family policy advocacy Building on the Queensland Parent Advisory Committee (QPAC), all Australian governments should set up family advisory committees to advise on child protection policy and practice. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander participation in these committees is crucial. 2. Peer parent and family casework and systems advocacy Child protection authorities and non-government organisations should partner with parent and family led organisations to trial and evaluate peer parent and family advocacy initiatives in all child settings and processes, such as safety planning, children's placements, family visiting and staff training.

You deserve it. #childrensbooks #queensland #familyinclusion
