Safe Club 4 Kids is a presentation and education program for clubs and community groups that covers issues of child abuse, paedophila and member protection.

After attending a presentation, members and Community groups will:

• Have a better understanding of the different types of child abuse.
• Understand how to receive a report of child abuse from a child or an adult.
• Understand how to report the incident to the Police or to a club Reporting Officer.
• Understand National and State policies regarding Member Protection.
• Understand responsibilities as an adult.

Safe Club 4 Kids is about doing what is required to protect our children and taking the steps to protect ourselves against false allegations. Safe Club 4 Kids is also about protecting our organization by implementing policies and procedures and best practice models to provide a safe and healthy environment for all members.

SLSWA have now also partnered with DSR, WASF and the WA Police Child Protection Unit and have developed this program for external sporting organisations. . The feedback from participating sports has been extremely positive and has given them great assistance in providing a fun and safe environment for their junior members.
