National Child Protection Week: 5-11 September 2021

Our pledge: YFCC pledge to support parents, families and communities with keeping children safe, while promoting the importance of children’s safety and wellbeing.

National Child Protection Week is an annual event starting on the first Sunday of September. This year’s theme “Every child, in every community, needs a fair go” aims to spread the message that to treat all of Australia’s children fairly, we need to make sure every family and community has what kids need to thrive and be healthy.

Visit https://www.napcan.org.au/get-involved-2021/ to find out more about the campaign and how you can get involved including signing up for the newsletter, adding your logo, downloading posters, and joining in events and activities.

NAPCAN has plenty of free resources to support your activities including: brochures for parents and carers, tips for how to play your part, videos and posters.

In particular, check out the Children’s Art Activity which asks children what they think is most important in a child-friendly community https://www.napcan.org.au/art-activity/.
