Established in 2024, Nyanya Munjindei ATSICHS Brisbane Delegated Authority is our newest child protection program. We work with families to make decisions about Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children who are currently involved or at risk of involvement with Child Safety. We support decision-making about:  

CONNECTION: When, where and how often our kids spend time with family, culture and community. 

REUNIFICATION: When and how we bring our kids home to parents or another family member, so they will be safe, supported and connected. 

FAMILY PLANS: Approving family plans. 

This means that certain care, protection, and connection decisions will be made for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and young people, by our First Nations CEO, who leads our community-controlled organisation and no longer by Child Safety.
