WORKING FOR ALL CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE – as well as individual young people, YAC works to improve social and legal systems so that they are more responsive and appropriate to the needs of children and young people, which take account of their developmental and situational issues, and importantly Australia’s international obligations.
