The September 2013 edition of SNAICC News features articles on SNAICC’s highly successful Fifth National Conference in Cairns in June, and snapshots of celebrations across the country for National Aboriginal and Islander Children’s Day on 4 August.
The newsletter also covers a major forum in Melbourne organised by SNAICC at which national and international experts discussed issues around the dramatically high number of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in out-of-home care.
And the newsletter reports on some exciting new resources SNAICC has developed, including a website that offers support to cares of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, and an education kit on child rights.
