如果部门想与您讨论您的孩子,这意味着他们已收到报告,认为您的孩子可能面临伤害风险。

部门:

The Department won’t automatically remove your children from your care just because there’s domestic and family violence. Children are only usually removed as a last option.

After the Department investigates a report, they may decide everything is okay. Sometimes they may want to work with your family so your children stay in your care while steps are taken to improve their safety.

It’s important to try to work with the Department, even if you don’t agree with the reasons they are getting involved with your family. See tips for working with the Department.
