Weaving The Net is a community development program which aims to provide the community with accurate information on child sexual abuse, child abuse and family violence.
"It demonstrates an understanding of the dynamics of child physical, sexual and emotional abuse together with neglect especially in Aboriginal communities," a spokesperson for the education centre for violence said.
"It strengthens partnerships between communities and agencies to improve access to effective child protection services."
An event is being held at the Wellington Information and Neighbourhood Services this Tuesday and Wednesday. Contact 6845 1606 for further information.
