Campaigns We Support

We believe in the power of collective action to create lasting change. 

From time to time, we add our voice to wider campaigns that share our vision and goals of supporting Aboriginal children, young people, and families. By joining forces with like-minded organisations and campaigns, we amplify our impact and work towards a society where all children have the opportunity to thrive. We are currently involved in the following campaigns and coalitions:

#RaiseTheAge

We're calling for all state, territory and Commonwealth governments to raise the minimum age of criminal responsibility in Australia to at least 14.

Home Stretch
