SNAICC’s submission draws on discussions with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander BBF and Child Care Benefit (CCB) early childhood services from across Australia; Indigenous Support Units (IPSUs); SNAICC National Executive members working in the early childhood sector; representatives from peak bodies and other relevant early childhood organisations; and sector experts. The submission sets out seven principles we believe are key to delivering culturally appropriate, sustainable and high quality early childhood programs for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. It then addresses the issues and challenges with both the current BBF program, and the alternative CCB program.
