ACWA Strategy to Action Day - 1st August 2024

We are very much looking forward to seeing you in person / online at our Strategy to Action event this Thursday 1st August.

Please note that there have been a couple of changes to the published program, as follows:
1. ANROWS 'Impact of Coercive Control on Children' workshop will now be IN PERSON only. Please note that the same workshop opportunity will be offered entirely online in the near future and registrants will be contacted to participate.

2. ACWA member workshop on 'Positioning the Sector for Success in a Changing OOHC Landscape' is POSTPONED. We note the many competing demands on OOHC providers at the current time and have taken the decision that it will be much more valuable for our members if this workshop is held separately at a later date.

All other sessions remain as advertised and we look forward to seeing you in person from 9.30am and online from 10.00am. Links to the two topic streams will be sent out by c.o.b on Tuesday.

Stream one: Family Preservation and Domestic & Family Violence - with special guests from Australia's National Research Organisation for Women's Safety (ANROWS) 

Stream two: Out-of-home Care and Child Protection - What is the future of caring?

These forums are free for ACWA members and provide the opportunity to:

Connect and network with sector colleagues (even online!) 

• Hear about latest studies and evidence
• Share and discuss experiences impacting the children, young people and families you're supporting.

Thank you to all the presenters and panelists. 

ACWA acknowledges the Gadigal People of the Eora Nation as the Traditional Owners of the lands where this ACWA event will take place, and wish to pay respect to their Elders, past and present. ACWA recognises that these lands have always been places of teaching and learning.
