Child Welfare
Our Commitment to Protecting Children
Children are not only our future but also the torchbearers of a flourishing nation.
Australian Christians acknowledges the pivotal role of families as the natural sanctuaries for nurturing and fostering the next generation.
However, in recognising the vulnerability of children within our society, we advocate for robust legal measures that serve as the bedrock of our child welfare policies.
We firmly believe that the child’s best interests are served when both parents can safely play an active role in making significant decisions concerning their life. Australian Christians endorse a collaborative approach, recognising the value of joint parental involvement in crucial matters, thereby creating a nurturing environment where the child’s needs are comprehensively addressed and their wellbeing is prioritised.
Take Action: Be the Change
If you align with these policies, we invite you to join us. Together, we can create a system that truly serves the best interests of Australian families.
Australian Christians’ advocacy for child development
Both mother and father play a pivotal role in shaping a child’s holistic growth, Australian Christians assert the intrinsic right of children to benefit from the positive influence provided by both parental figures. This conviction underpins our unwavering support for an adoption policy that aims to foster a healthy and balanced upbringing by placing children in environments that reflect benefit from both a mother and father.
Nurturing stability: Australian Christians call for proactive measures in protecting children
Addressing the repercussions of divorce and separation, Australian Christians advocate for proactive governmental intervention to promote healthy relationships that prioritise the paramount interests of the child. With a strong emphasis on reconciliation, our policy efforts aim to provide the best possible opportunities for the long term stability and growth of children, mitigating the emotional distress and social disruptions often associated with family crises.

Our policies encourage an environment where both parents actively participate in shaping their children’s lives.
Online safety measures to protect children

Drawing inspiration from successful global models, our advocacy seeks to secure children’s exploration of the digital realm while protecting them from the potential perils of early sexualisation and immoral ideology.
