If you are a parent or carer
You’re in the right place! As a trusted adult, you form part of your child’s safety network and can use this sheet to identify and record people and services you can turn to for information. You can also share with other adults your child has identified as people they trust. If you’ve come here because you’re worried about something specific, you don’t have to figure it out alone. You’ll find contact information for services using the link below.
