Child-Friendly Commitment Statement
Your Safety and Wellbeing Matter to Us!
At INLLEN, we want you to feel completely safe when you are involved in the Merri-bek L2P program.
Our Promise to You:
- We listen to you: Your voice is important. You have the right to speak up and tell us what you think.
- We respect who you are: It does not matter where you come from, what you believe, or who you love. Everyone belongs here.
- We keep a safe space: We look after your culture and background, especially if you are an Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander young person.
- We do not tolerate harm: No one—including our staff, volunteers, or other young people—is allowed to abuse you, bully you, or make you feel unsafe.
If you ever feel unsafe, worried, or upset:
You can talk to any of our staff members, or contact our L2P Coordinator, Stephanie Zurawski M: 0457 791 480. We will always take you seriously, keep your information private, and help you fix the problem. You can also call Kids Helpline anytime on 1800 55 1800.
