Child Safe Standards

Murray Mallee LLEN is committed to promoting and protecting the interests and safety of children and young people. We have zero tolerance for child abuse. All staff and volunteers are responsible for the care and protection of children and young people, and for reporting abuse.

It also provides an opportunity for young people to interact with positive adult role models, gain confidence and move towards social independence.
