Definition of a Harold: Harolds come in all shapes and sizes, sometimes they are men, sometimes women. Often Harolds are simply people who leave things to the last minute (and sometimes wait until it’s too late!) Sometimes Harolds are people who think that their opinions aren’t very important and shy away from sharing them with others (which is a shame because PeakCare thinks that the views and experiences of all our Members are extremely important). Sometimes Harolds are just very busy people who find it difficult to find the time to meet and collaborate with others (even though we think that it’s very important that they do). Sometimes Harolds prefer to leave systems advocacy to others (even though we think that this is a responsibility shared by all).
 
Don’t be a Harold! Make sure that your organisation is well-represented at each of PeakCare’s Roundtables closest to where your organisation delivers services. Don’t leave it to others – have your say too!

In the meantime, Member organisations are advised to complete and submit their Member Agency Contact List if they have not already done so.

National Framework Third Action Plan updates

Updates on the Third Action Plan of the National Framework for Protecting Australia’s Children 2009–2020 include a number of projects and new publications. Under Strategy #1, Early intervention with a focus on the early years particularly in the first 1000 days for a child, the Building Capacity in Australian Parents (BCAP) 'Parent Link' trial will launch in mid-2018, and aims to improve parenting skills by providing information in text messages sent to expectant parents, parents and carers on child development, and parenting and support services relating to the first 1,000 days of a child’s life. In Queensland, it will launch in Rockhampton, Toowoomba and Ipswich. The National Community Awareness Raising (NCAR) Strategy approach is in development, with key messages, materials and a  national communications plan as priorities. The Connected Beginnings program, funding integration of early childhood, maternal and child health, and family support services with schools in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities experiencing disadvantage, continues. In Queensland, it has commenced in Doomadgee.

Under Strategy #2, Helping young people in out-of-home care to thrive in adulthood, the discussion paper Transition from out of home care to adulthood: mapping legislation and policy across Australian jurisdictions is currently being finalised to examine the impacts of jurisdictional approaches to extend statutory responsibility and support for young people exiting out-of-home care after they turn 18. The Towards Independent Adulthood (TIA) trial in Western Australia is trialling ways of improving support to young people by delivering intensive support including wrap-around services linking to education, health and housing. The trial comprises an intensive case management service, priority access to government funded services, and online resources and is currently at full capacity.

Under National Strategy #3, Organisations responding better to children and young people to keep them safe, the Inter-jurisdictional Child Protection Information Sharing Project is being conducted in New South Wales. The project explores gaps and barriers to inter‑jurisdictional exchange of child protection information, and has been included as a possible action in the draft Fourth Action Plan. To support the project, grants were provided to two enterprises - Itree and Factil - to develop a digital solution that supports state and territory child protection agencies to share information across borders in order to better identify and understand potential risks to children.


New publications include the National Framework for Protecting Australia's Children Annual Report 2014-15 and 2015-16, and the National Framework for protecting Australia's children indicators

NAIDOC Week 2018 - celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women

The theme of this year's NAIDOC Week is Because of Her We Can, highlighting the crucial role Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women play in their communities and nationally. Too often their voices and contributions are ignoredstolen or marginalised. This NAIDOC Week provides the opportunity to offer the recognition and respect these women deserve. 
Remarkable women such as Fanny Cochrane, Evelyn Scott and Faith Thomas shaped Australian history. To hear from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women today, the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Social Justice Commissioner June Oscar AO, the first woman appointed to that position, launched the Wiyi Yani U Thangani (Women's Voices) project, which represents the first time in over three decades the federal government has funded a national engagement project with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women. As Commissioner Oscar asserts, "We must nurture and teach our young Indigenous women to be strong in their sense of identity and individual and collective worth." The project is travelling nationally to hear from women in their own words about their lived experiences, priorities, challenges and aspirations for themselves, their families and their futures - beyond, as the Commissioner notes, the existing "narrow frame of victimhood and dysfunction." No woman need miss out - the project is also accepting online submissions until November. 
Collectively, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women significantly contribute to the nation. The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) shows that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women are increasingly engaging in formal education and achieving higher academic levels, with a 45% increase in 2014-15 from 2008. Over one-third of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women surveyed reported providing care and support for someone in need, showing the vital and often overlooked role they play in strengthening social and family networks. See more of the ABS facts celebrating the achievements of these women.

Tuning In to Acting Out: responding to the behaviours and needs of young people
Brisbane - Thursday, 23rd August

Presented by Encompass Family and Community

We all acknowledge the principle that children and young people who need care are best placed with kin, if there are family members who can provide safety and help meet their emotional needs. However there are some challenges to be overcome! Achieving positive family contact with parents can be tricky, and research tells us that reunification planning can be more difficult than with non-relative carers. Family of origin patterns of interaction, and longstanding issues around relationships and the meanings attributed to past events, can be complicated. Cultural and customary kinship roles add a further dimension. This workshop puts the spotlight on the particular issues which workers must address for kinship care to work well, and considers strategies to assist all parties to focus on the child’s needs irrespective of ‘family’ issues. Find out more and register.
 

SENSEable CLASSROOMS
Brisbane - Tuesday, 4th September
Presented by Compass Seminars

Research is clearly showing that well designed primary schools and classroom environments boost children’s learning ability. By modifying and fine tuning the environment, we are basically changing the sensory environment for students. Factors such as visual glare, the effect of florescent lights, impact of posters on classroom walls, noise level, seating organisation, seating options, tactile options, transitions and playground equipment are just some of the sensory and environmental players in schools.Understanding the core concepts of sensory processing, how to identify sensory reactions or sensory driven behaviours in classrooms and schools is critical in supporting children with Autism Spectrum Disorder who also struggle significantly with sensory processing difficulties daily. Find out more and register
