Press Release – Joint Press Release
Two organisations that work with children and young people have teamed up to provide an enhanced level of support for young people this holiday period, following a nationwide rise in child protection enquiries.
Child Matters has partnered with Youthline to upskill their team further in identifying vulnerability and potential abuse in children and young people, and to better understand when to take appropriate action – and what action to take.
Child Matters National Services Manager, Megan West says they have worked closely with Youthline over the past month to make sure their team feel well equipped to tackle the current and expected increase in complex cases relating to child protection during the busy holiday period.
