Our commitment
YMCS is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people. We have zero tolerance for child abuse and comply with the Victorian Child Safe Standards.
What we do
- All staff who work with children hold a current Working with Children Check and NDIS Worker Screening Check.
- Staff are trained to recognise and respond to concerns about a child’s safety.
- We listen to children and young people and take their concerns seriously.
- We work with families and carers, respect diversity and promote cultural safety for Aboriginal children.
Reporting concerns
All concerns are acted on immediately. Where a child is at immediate risk, call 000. We report to Victoria Police, Child Protection and the NDIS Commission as required by law.
