The Australian Childhood Foundation (ACF) is a national charity which works in a number of ways to make children’s safety and welfare a priority. ACF provides a range of specialist counselling services for children and young people affected by abuse and for their families.
The organisation provides community and professional education, consultancy and debriefing programs, and child abuse prevention programs. These programs aim to improve responses to children and young people who have experienced or are at risk of abuse, family violence and neglect. In partnership with Monash University, ACF has established the National Research Centre for the Prevention of Child Abuse to research the problem of child abuse and identify constructive solutions.
