Moving Forward Together at The Family Co. This week, from September 1st to 7th, is National Child Protection Week. This National Child Protection Week, we’re leading the way to come together to ensure every child in our community feels safe, supported, and has a fair go at life. At The Family Co., we believe that protecting children isn’t just a responsibility—it’s a community effort. Here are four impactful ways you can help increase child protection in your community and home: 1. Start Conversations That Matter Conversations are powerful. Whether at home, in schools, or within your community, talking about child safety, well-being, and the importance of a supportive environment can make a real difference. Remember, every conversation counts. 2. Educate Yourself and Others Knowledge is key to prevention. Take advantage of resources like NAPCAN’s free webinars, which cover essential topics such as preventing emotional and sexual abuse, and understanding the cultural aspects of child-rearing. Share this knowledge with your network to create a ripple effect of awareness. 3. Support Local Organisations Engage with local groups like The Family Co., who are working on the front lines to support children and families. Whether through volunteering, donating, or participating in events, your involvement can have a lasting impact on those in need. 4. Raise Awareness on Social Media Use your platforms to spread the word about National Child Protection Week. Your voice can help amplify this critical message. By taking these steps, we can collectively create safer environments where every child has the opportunity to grow up loved and protected. Let’s work together to make a difference this week and beyond. This week NAPCAN is hosting a range of amazing free webinars to educate and inspire forward change. https://lnkd.in/g8uCZjWc #NationalChildProtectionWeek #EveryChildMatters #CommunitySafety #ChildProtection #TheFamilyCo
