Did you know...many Australian states and territories legally require organisations, who provide services to children, to hold and maintain child safeguarding strategies.
These strategies can include Working With Children Check compliance, policies, procedures, training, communication strategies, governance and record keeping.
If creating a Child Safe Framework is not your thing, or like many others you have been over-reliant on Working With Children Checks, than don't worry because we have done all the hard work for you.
Equipped For Kids has developed practical resources that are effective, sustainable, fit-for-purpose and enhance your compliance with legislation and the Australian National Principles for Child Safe Organisations.
We tailor all child safeguarding strategies to ensure the risks to your children, staff, organisation and community is managed.
Equipped For Kids also conducts organisational audits to highlight your child safeguarding strengths, opportunities for growth, and mitigate the ever-present risk to children.
"By strengthening our community, we strengthen our ability to protect and raise amazing children. "
"We have some really amazing people in our community.
This is Aleisha, a very impressive local who has set up a business dedicated to child protection.
With 12 years experience working in Youth Justice and community safety, Aleisha saw a need for easy-to-use resources and training to help community and sporting groups to enhance the safety of our children. So she set up her own business...
Aleisha works with community groups to train volunteers and support clubs to meet their important obligations to keep our kids safe.
She has such valuable expertise and a heart for our community. Thank you Aleisha for dropping in and telling me all about your important work today".
