Child and Youth Strategy
The formation of the Child and Youth Strategy was a key recomendation of the Nunn Commission of Inquiry.
The Strategy will include community-based programs, with the goal of bringing services closer to children, youth and families. Government appointed an executive director to head the Child and Youth Strategy in late April, 2007.
The Strategy is an initiative to improve services to children, youth, and families through greater collaboration between five key Government departments: Health, Education, Community Services, Justice, and, Health Promotion and Protection.
