It’s wild out here, fam — new data reveals two in five Aussie kids are caught in domestic violence, yet the system’s built for adults, leaving them sidelined.

First Nations, remote, disabled, and LGBTQI+ kids face even steeper barriers. The call? Center kids’ voices in policy, fund child-specific services, and unite child protection, legal, police, and mental health systems. With the federal government’s Second Action Plan underway, the roadmap’s clear — it just needs political will. Kids have been saying what they need for years. Time for action, not talk.
