Title
Australian College for Child & Family Practitioners
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- Society values each child's natural right to have basic needs, for survival and development met and each child's natural right to live with his/her family. Society also values each parent's natural right to rear his/her child, but through its child welfare laws, defines certain situations in which the parent's rights can be limited so that the child can be protected. Society delegates to the child & family welfare field and to those who become members of the field the authority to intervene in the lives of families with the goals of ensuring the safety of abused and neglected children, assisting parents in meeting minimum parenting standards, and planning alternative permanent care when parents are incapable of or unwilling to meet those standards.
