Growing Up Safe and Supported

Research and Developments in Autism: A SA Perspective

This year National Child Protection Week (4-10 September) focuses on ‘Every child, in every community, needs a fair go’, in particular on children growing up safe and supported. This forum will cover the great work being undertaken across organisations from a clinical, research and government perspective on what is needed to keep our children safe and supported so that every child in every community has a fair go. By working together and creating collaborative and supportive places for every child we can strive to achieve this and more.
