Child Safety Service Centres - Toowoomba
Child Safety Service Centres are located in communities throughout Queensland. In Toowoomba, there are two Child Safety Service Centres - Toowoomba North and Toowoomba South. Both operate from the same premises.
Child Safety Service Centres provide support and a range of services to children, young people, families and carers to ensure children's safety and wellbeing and to prevent children from being harmed.
A Child Safety Service Centre is the contact point during business hours when:
* you have an enquiry or support need and are an existing client (you or your family currently have contact with a child safety officer working in the service centre)
* as a member of the public, you would like to talk to a child safety officer as you have information about a child or young person in contact with the child safety service centre
* you are a carer of a child who is involved with the child safety service centre.
You can contact Child Safety during business hours via:
* a regional intake service, if you have concerns for a child and suspect a child is being harmed or may be at risk of experiencing harm in the near future
* a child safety service centre.
* a regional office.
You can contact the Child Safety After Hours Service Centre (freecall 1800 177 135) outside of usual business hours. They provide a range of services to current Child Safety clients, are the contact point if you are concerned that a child has been harmed or may be at risk of harm, and provide support for foster and kinship carers.
