Child Safety and Wellbeing Statement of Commitment
At Beyond Blue, we are committed to promoting and protecting the safety and wellbeing of children, including First Nations children, children with disabilities, from cultural and linguistically diverse backgrounds and children that are gender diverse.
We recognise the link between the safety and wellbeing of children and the successful delivery of our Mission and Vision. Consistent with our organisational values, Beyond Blue will work to promote the mental health and wellbeing of children, instil a culture of child safety, listen to our youth community and work to reduce the risk of harm.
We have zero tolerance for any form of child abuse and will embed and enact processes to respond to incidents.
Child safety is a shared responsibility between Beyond Blue, its employees, volunteers, contractors, associates and community.
"I felt like I’d been believed for the first time... it was really refreshing to have that support from someone, especially an actual professional.
It was nice to finally feel like I wasn’t alone."
- Rachael, Beyond Blue Speaker
When people feel all alone this Christmas, your kindness today means Beyond Blue counsellors will be there 24/7, to listen and support when it matters most.
