SAFE IN CULTURE, NOT IN CARE
Let’s halve the number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in out-of-home care by 2018.
BREAK THE CYCLE
Let’s break the cycle of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander child removal.
40,000 YEARS OF CARE
Aboriginal people have been caring for their children for 40 000 years.
INCLUSIVE DECISION MAKING
Better decisions are made when Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are involved.
PREVENTION NOT REMOVAL
It makes greater economic sense to invest in prevention rather than child removal.
