Safeguard TrainingNew Laws to Protect Children from Sexual AbuseThe Queensland Government has implemented new laws to increase the protection of children from sexual abuse and which place new legal obligations on all adults in Queensland. It is important that all Archdiocesan volunteers have an understanding of those legal obligations.
