SNAICC has undertaken consultations to inform the development of the successor plan for the National Framework for Protecting Australia’s Children.

This plan aims to substantively improve outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people, to urgently counter increasing numbers of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children entering out-of-home care. Many of these children are being permanently placed away from their family, often with non-Indigenous carers, and are not being reunified with family.
