Every day, child protection workers across Australia step into unpredictable and often dangerous situations. They conduct home visits in unfamiliar neighbourhoods, interview families in crisis, and make decisions that can provoke anger and aggression. When a caseworker is alone in the field, a policy is not a safety net. A live connection is.
A study of Australian child protection professionals found that 91% had experienced intimidating behaviour, 72% had experienced threats of violence, and 24% had experienced actual physical assault. These are not isolated incidents—they are the reality of frontline child protection work.
