Department for Child Protection

Agencies across government have continued to make progress over the past year to recognise and support people who experienced institutional child sexual abuse in the past, and to better protect children in the future.

Keeping South Australian children and vulnerable families safe and well is the primary focus of a new whole-of-government child protection strategy.

The State Government recently tabled the third annual progress report for the Nyland Royal Commission, detailing significant progress that has been made to better protect and support vulnerable children and families.

World-renowned UK social work expert Emeritus Professor Eileen Munro is in Adelaide this week sharing her knowledge and expertise about navigating the complexity of working with children and families in the child protection space, with local social workers.
