Reporting child abuse and neglect

Safer Centres is not a reporting body or child protection hotline. If you are reporting child abuse or neglect, please refer to the relevant State/Territory authority contact here.

If you believe a child is in immediate danger call the Police on Triple ZERO (000).

Reporting online child abuse material

Report suspected use of technology to facilitate the sexual abuse of a child, production or sharing of child sexual abuse material online to the Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation.
