ABOUT CHILDREN’S GROUND

https://childrensground.org.au/

Children’s Ground is a not-for-profit organisation led by First Nations people to transform the future for their children.

Children’s Ground is designed for long-term change in whole communities - to shift the status quo from one where kids face a lifetime of trauma and disadvantage to a future for First Nations children filled with opportunity, joy, justice, and empowerment.

We are community-led, bringing together First Nations and Western knowledge systems and practice expertise. Our unique 25-year approach follows a child’s life journey from early childhood to young adulthood. The approach integrates the five key pillars of life: a) learning and wellbeing; 2) family health and wellbeing; 3) community; 4) culture; 5) economic opportunity.

Our integrated approach understands the culture and needs of communities, engaging people across all areas to have lives every day. It is also building the evidence to change those government policy approaches and systems currently failing First Nations children, families, and communities. Children’s Ground communities celebrate culture and prevent harm - the child trauma, suicide, mental health challenges, alcohol and other drug abuse, child removal, incarceration, ill-health, early death, and family violence.
