NHWA in collaboration with the Australian Centre to Counter Child Exploitation, has created a powerful new series of Community Service Announcements (CSAs) focused on “Keeping Kids Safe Online” – with crime prevention messaging about online child safety specifically focused on preventing online child sexual exploitation.
The series has been created to raise awareness about the importance of online safety for children and highlights the critical role parent, carers, and the broader community play in keeping children safe from online child sexual exploitation.

Keep your children safe online!
Remember: Always supervise children when they're online, check privacy settings, talk to your kids regularly about what they do online and how to stay safe, and know where to get support and to report any form on online harm towards a child.
