Uniting is a child safe organisation that values all voices, big and small. For National Child Protection Week, we asked young children to tell us what makes them feel secure.

Census data has been hot in the media this week, with public debate on whether questions of sexuality, gender identity and variations of sex characteristics should be included in the 2026 Census. Why is this important? Policies and programs of support for people in our society rely on publicly collected data to understand who is in the community, where they live and what they might need. To be seen and valued in policy, people need to be seen in all their richness and complexity. Which is why the LGBTQI+ community has been campaigning for the inclusion of questions of sexuality, sex and gender to be included in the Census, the largest and most significant statistical event in Australia. This is also why Uniting’s recently launched Families Report is important. As we begin a ten-year exploration of Australian families raising children, fostering dialogue and action, our commitment to disrupting entrenched disadvantage is unwavering. 👉 Read the Uniting Families Report here: https://lnkd.in/gafdVSr3

Happy Wear It Purple Day! 💜 This year's theme celebrates rainbow youth expressing themselves through their passions - whether that's sport, science, art or something else altogether. Our Pride Network has shared some of the people that inspired them in their youth, and made living out and proud seem possible. 🏳️🌈 We want to see LGBTQIA+ role models across all walks of life. Wear It Purple Day is about creating safe, supportive and inclusive environments that empower rainbow youth. Be part of the solution. Co-create spaces for LGBTIQ+ youth to feel empowered and take ownership of their stories and share their experiences, enabling them to feel safe and like they belong. 🌈 #pridenetwork #wearitpurple #WIP2024 #rainbowyouth

"A good leader is someone who uses their power to empower others, rather than wielding it in a destructive or imposing way," says AKRAM Eshaghi. Uniting's Centre Director - Uniting Airlie Preschool Oatlands, believes in using leadership to drive positive change. "Such a leader focuses on everyone's strengths and encourages mutual empowerment, bringing out the best in each person to achieve high-quality outcomes." Akram shares her passion for empowering children and educators to become lifelong learners in this week's Uniting Leadership Series. #WeAreUniting #Leadership #Advice #Wisdom #Career #Education #EarlyEducator

Mission Chaplain James Arnott reflects on life being like an ocean passage undertaken on a sailboat. "How seaworthy the sailboat of your life is, depends directly on your attitude and approach to everchanging situations that might come out of the blue," says James. #WeareUniting #advice #wisdom #quoteoftheday #quote #mentalhealth

What do we know about families raising children and young people in Australia? Today we launch the Uniting Families Report with our partners at the UNSW Social Policy Research Centre. This report is the first in a 10-year series of annual reports that seeks to explore the realities of family life in Australia. The findings in the Uniting Families Report spotlight significant disparities in our community. We invite you to join us in using these insights to improve the way we support all children and their families to thrive. Read the report here: https://lnkd.in/gDxD2Afe
