Community Services say your child is not safe (easy read)

Use this webpage if you live in NSW. This webpage is about what happens if Community Services say your child is not safe.

It explains the different things they may do. They may make a Safety Plan with you. They may arrange short-term care for your child. Or they may remove your child and go to court.

The webpage explains what a Safety Plan means, how temporary care works, and why you may need to go to court. It also says you can ask a support person or advocate to help you.
