Staff from Child Safety Services becomes involved if they’re worried about the safety or care of your children.

They can help you and your family make changes so your children are safe, healthy and have what they need to grow up in a safe environment.

They can also go to court to ask a Magistrate to make an order (these are explained below).

Sometimes Child Safety Services may ask for help from the police.

Child Safety Services is part of the Department of Communities Tasmania. Find out more about its work, including the full Child Safety Process, at Child Safety Services website.
