Mallee Family Care is a child safe organisation that welcomes all children, young people and their families across north-west Victoria and far-west New South Wales.

 
We are committed to providing environments that are safe and feel safe, where their participation is valued, their views respected, and their voices are heard about decisions that affect their lives. Our child safe policies, strategies and practices are inclusive of the needs of all children.
 
We have no tolerance for child abuse and take proactive steps to identify and manage any risks and safety concerns. When child safety concerns are raised or identified, we treat these seriously and respond promptly and thoroughly.
 
We are committed to ensuring the cultural safety of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people, as well as those with disabilities, from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds, and those who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and gender diverse, queer/questioning, intersex and asexual (LGBTQIA+) and experiencing risk or vulnerability.
 
Inappropriate or harmful behaviour targeting children based on these or other characteristics, such as racism or homophobia, have no place within our organisation, and any instances identified will be addressed with appropriate consequences.
 
Protecting children is everyone’s responsibility and we encourage all people to raise concerns should they suspect the safety of a child is at risk. Every person involved in our organisation has an important role in promoting child safety and wellbeing and promptly raising any issues or concerns.
 
Working together, we can build a thriving community where all children feel safe, strong and connected.
