For community organisations—Our Kids Count
Our Kids Count is our campaign to increase birth registrations in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities.
It’s so important that all bubs are registered, to ensure they can access rights and opportunities like enrolling in day care, school and sports.
Our Kids Count is part of our 3-year Closing the Registration Gap strategy.
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are advised that this website may contain images, voices and videos of deceased persons.
