The Department for Child Protection plays a key role in the protection and support of children, young people and their families across South Australia.
We do this by:
- protecting children from abuse and harm
- supporting families to reduce risk to children
- providing alternative care for children and young people when living at home is no longer an option
- managing adoption processes
We are looking for energetic and innovative people who are passionate about contributing to the safety and wellbeing of children and young people so that they grow up safe, happy, and nurtured to reach their full potential.
We also have a strong commitment to reconciliation and providing culturally appropriate services. We encourage people of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander descent to apply.
