TASMANIAN CHILD & YOUTH SAFE FRAMEWORK

A new Tasmanian Child and Youth Safe Framework has been implemented as a result of the findings and recommendations of the Royal Commission Into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse.  Parkside are committed to embedding the key principles of the framework into our organisation, to ensure a safe organisation for children and young people accessing our supports.  Parkside are also committed to upholding the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people and acknowledge and respect the cultural diversity of all the people we support.
Parkside will abide by our obligation to report any concerns relating to children and young people to the Reportable Conduct Scheme and be guided by the Independent Regulator.
For more information about the Child and Youth Safe Framework and Universal Principle please refer to the Department of Justice’s website Resources | carcru (justice.tas.gov.au)
