Act For Kids - Aurukun Safe House
Child and Youth
Safe houses provide a safe and culturally appropriate home environment for children 0 – 17 years of age to remain within their communities and stay connected to family, culture and country whilst their ongoing child protection intervention and placement needs are assessed.
The safe houses also develop workforce capacity within the community through the training and employment of local community members.
All referrals for our Safe houses and Family Intervention Service come from the Department of Child Safety, Youth and Women.
