Child Protection Policy » Presbyterian Support Otago

At Family Works Otago we are committed to protecting children from risk of harm.

Our staff are trained and have a responsibility to:

identify concerns around a child’s safety and well-being
ask the right questions in the right way to ascertain the facts
use their professional judgement to determine any risk to a child
contact the appropriate agencies where there are serious concerns for a child’s safety and well-being

We abide by the Child Protection Policy, which is part of the Family Works agreed operational guidelines.
