Release of Breaking Cycles 2023-2025
Developed in partnership with the Queensland Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Child Protection Peak, the newly released Breaking Cycles action plan will change the way services are designed, developed and delivered with and for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and community.
Queensland’s child protection laws have changed
Changes to the Child Protection Act 1999 will reinforce children’s rights; strengthen children’s voices in decisions that affect them; improve how we work with First Nations children and families; and strengthen the regulation of care.
Helping families bounce back from tough times

If you are experiencing, or impacted by, domestic and family violence you can search for a support service near you.
