Safeguarding is, at its core, a human right.
It gives children and young people a voice and enables them to speak up with confidence.
The Y Canberra Region has a commitment to safeguarding children and vulnerable people first and foremost in all of our programs and activities. We have strong support, training and procedures which help us to continually embed a safe culture.
