You need help with your child (easy read)

Use this webpage if you live in NSW. It is about getting help to keep your child safe.

It explains what happens if you ask Community Services for help, or if they contact you after a Child Protection Report. The webpage tells you what Community Services can do, like checking your child is safe and finding support for your family.

It talks about safety plans, temporary care, and going to court. It also says you can ask for a lawyer, advocate or support person to help you.
