This project worked with a government agency and an Indigenous peak body to develop an action plan to address the over-representation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families in the child protection system.

Alexandra partnered with Kristal Kinsela Consulting for this work. Kristal is a proud and passionate Indigenous business leader who is an expert at connecting people and moving them into action. 

Over six months in 2022 we engaged with a range of stakeholders through workshops, one–on-one discussions and small group sessions, to understand their perspectives and identify priorities.

The engagement culminated in a full day forum with 158 people from: 

• Government agencies
• Non-Indigenous peak bodies
• Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander peak bodies
• Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander community controlled organisations
• Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander communities
• Out-of-home care sector employees.
