Take Action

There are many ways you can help us bring the spotlight back onto our most vulnerable citizens.
 
Speak Up
Show your commitment to building a child friendly New Zealand by reporting any incident of child abuse you see to your local police on 111 or Child Youth and Family on 0508 FAMILY (0508 326 459).

Support us being the 'voice for the voiceless'. Speak up if you have stories to be shared with our Nation, we would love to hear from you. Voice your concerns when issues arise by phoning talk back radio stations, writing a letter to the editor of your local newspaper, your electorate MP or leaders of other political parties.

Raise the importance of protecting New Zealand's children and families openly in conversations with friends, family and colleagues.
