National Child Protection Week 2009
National Child Protection Week is an initiative of the National Association for Prevention of Child Abuse and Neglect (NAPCAN).
Have your say in NAPCAN's national survey
To coincide with this important week, NAPCAN has launched the largest survey of community attitudes ever conducted in Australia, with every Australian adult being encouraged to spend time thinking and expressing their attitudes on the safety and wellbeing of Australia's children.
To complete the survey, go to: www.preventingchildabuse.com.au.
The survey closes on 1 November 2009.
