Role Title: Project Intern - Child Safe Unit
Organisation: Department of Communities
Internship Period: Summer (November - December)
Location: Fremantle
The intern will be placed in the Child Safe Unit, Strategy and Partnerships Division.
The intern will create a guide that can be applied by Department of Communities staff to understand and implement the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations within their work i.e. policy, procedure, service design, engagement with children. This has potential to be made available for other agencies through the Child Safe Organisations Knowledge Hub.
This will involve researching discernment guides, resources on the National Principles from other jurisdictions and some small internal consultation to inform development of the guide.
This will contribute to the implementation of the National Principles for Child Safe Organisations within the Department of Communities.
The Department collaborates to create pathways that enable individual, family and community wellbeing. What we do has far-reaching impacts across all aspects of society. Supporting wellbeing can mean many things including ensuring children are safe, helping people access a home, or creating diverse and inclusive communities.
