SNAICC's 8 Priorities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children and Families launch
23 November 2009
SNAICC’s 8 Priorities for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children and Families, was launched at the Adelaide SNAICC Members' Forum (11 November). The poster of the 8 Priorities will be sent to you soon.
The 2009 SNAICC’s 8 Priorities are reproduced in an excellent poster format following a two year consultation process with respect to the previous SNAICC 7 Priorities.
SNAICC is committed to pursuing the following eight priorities, each of equal importance, on behalf of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families. We will work in partnership with local services, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander bodies, governments and non-government organisations.
SNAICC's 8 Priorities are:
- Support families to care for children
- Value and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture
- Healing and reparations for the Stolen Generations
- Self determination in child protection
- Thrive by five with culture alive
- Real results take real planning
- Building capacity builds communities
- Hope, wealth and prosperity for our children
Find more information on each of the 8 Priorities on the SNAICC website.
