Building Better Child Protection

The single most valuable thing we can do for vulnerable children is to ensure that the professionals in their lives have the training to notice that they are vulnerable, and to help them. We have the knowledge, but the training is not accessible to the children's workforce. I want to build the skill and confidence of every professional working with vulnerable children, by providing an accessible, meaningful, and useful module based teaching programme.
