The Child and Youth Safe Organisations Framework – CYSOF

The Child and Youth Safe Organisations Framework (CYSOF) outlines what Tasmanian organisations need to do to be truly child-centred and safe for children and young people.
If your community group is running program that involve being in direct contact with Children, this framework will help your organisation be complaint with the current regulations, to keep all our children safe, happy and free of abuse.
CYSOF was developed by the Office of the independent regulator, to assist the Government with implementing the many recommendations of the Commission of Inquiry into child Sexual Abuse in Institutional Settings (COI).
MCOT is committed in supporting our organisation to be compliant and to understand their responsibility when it comes to child and youth safety, not only at School, and in any setting.
Go to the Office of the independent regulator (OIR) for more information about CYSOF.
You can go to the Department of Justice If you want to find out how CYSOF is being monitored.
