It is our belief that whenever possible a child's place is in his or her own home with his or her own parent(s)/family. Our challenge is to ensure the protection of children and to do so, wherever achievable, through supporting parents/families to provide a healthy nurturing home environment. The Society also helps to build healthy families by working with parents to address concerns and resolve issues that impact on a child’s safety and well-being. We invite you to browse through our website to learn more about your duty to report suspected child abuse, neglect, and maltreatment.
