See also 'Through young black eyes : a guide for indigenous community leaders to respond to family violence and child abuse' on our Research & Resources database. Previously published in 2002. This handbook is an update to the 2002 edition first published by the Secretariat National Aboriginal and Islander Child Care (SNAICC). It accompanies the leaflet and booklet on the guide for Indigenous community leaders to respond to family violence and child abuse. It forms part of a targeted strategy to raise awareness within Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities about family violence, child abuse and neglect, and child sexual assault. The first three sections (A to C) focus on these forms of abuse by defining, identifying the effects, providing information on how to recognise abuse and respond in ways that support children and prevent abuse from continuing. The role of Aboriginal and Islander Child Care Agencies in supporting families and protecting children is emphasised. Section D sets out details about the child protection process, child protection legislation, and who is mandated by law to report suspected abuse for each state. The final section E lists support and legal services, Indigenous and other national organisations related to family violence and child abuse, as well as reference to useful publications, pamphlets and websites.
