Concerned for a child or youth?

We're here to serve our people.

Our team will listen to your worries about a child or youth and point you in the right direction - this might be referring your concerns onto our social workers, or putting you in touch with others who can help.

If you suspect child abuse or neglect, or are worried about a child or youth, you can call us and talk to one of our social workers. They will determine the urgency of the concern, whether we need to do anything further, or if the child or young person's needs could be better met by another agency. 

If a child is in immediate danger – phone the Police at 911.

Please send us an email. If your question is urgent we recommend you call 911.
