Kicked off our first Therapeutic Crisis Intervention training for 2019. Case Managers take carers on a unique learning journey, that will enrich them with the skills, confidence and strategies to be the catalyst that results in greater outcomes for our Children & Young People.

Today Home Stretch officially launches in NSW - let's do this. Let's extend the age of foster care from 18 to 21 and give those leaving care the best chance at starting a new life for themselves as young adults. Come on NSW, #MakeIt21 https://t.co/UwaMIFpgOA

On the first full day of our International Child Trauma Conference #childtrauma2018, @JoeTucciACF & @janisemitchell welcome the 'collective of like-minded people who have come together to share their thoughts, reflect on the thoughts of others, and learn.' https://t.co/4NRy8vrPLr

Victoria’s Opposition Leader has promised to provide out-of-home care services to young people up to age 21 if he wins government. With an election coming up next year in NSW, we’d love to see our own parties commit to extending the age of care. #nswpol https://t.co/99ALtC4pGd

[AbSec @AbSecNSW]

Why establish an Aboriginal child & family commission? The system “would work w/ communities, be Aboriginal led & Aboriginal designed, to offer the kind of support families need across the whole continuum, from early intervention through to foster care.” https://t.co/MLRtnIjey0

[Megan Mitchell @MeganM4Kids]

The protection of children must be our no. 1 priority. At 50,000 substantiated child abuse reports in 2017 the number is the highest it has ever been. Governments and the community need to urgently work together to stop child abuse.https://t.co/mUzRdcSCnx https://t.co/2uiSdOH59o
