Through a Child's Eyes

This booklet, produced by the Statewide Children's Resource Program, may assist you to help a child through their experiences of family violence and/or homelessness. It contains children's stories in their own words and pcitures.
Homelessness and/or family violence can have a serious impact on a child's mental and physical health and overall developmental progress. It is important to remember that only the person choosing to use violence, in any form, is responsible for the resulting effects of that violence.

The Private Rooming House Operators Act

Message from CHP - Update 21 April 2017

The new Rooming House Operators Act comes into effect on 26 April, requiring all existing operators to be licensed by 24 August.

Those applying for a rooming house license must now satisfy a ‘fit and proper test’, including a criminal history check, a financial history check, and checks against various offences. Operators who opt to close their rooming house rather than apply for a license have been advised to issue an appropriate notice to vacate by 26 April.
