The May 2013 edition of SNAICC News features an interview with the National Children’s Commissioner, Megan Mitchell, in which she emphasises the importance of listening to children when developing policies and programs that impact on them.
The latest edition looks at the issues facing the new Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and family centres operating in the remote NSW towns of Brewarrina and Lightning Ridge; and reports on how children spend their school holidays in the APY Lands of South Australia.
This edition also contains information on a number of exciting new SNAICC resources, including the revised edition of its acclaimed Through Young Black Eyes workshop kit to help families and communities deal with family violence issues.
