Child & Family Safety 2026

Panel 5: One System for Safety: Collaboration, Data and SharedAccountability

In this powerful podcast conversation, we explore the real human cost of fragmented child protection systems, family violence, childhood trauma, and the urgent need for a more connected, compassionate approach to care.

Through deeply personal lived experience and expert insights, this episode looks at how families can fall through the cracks when child protection, health, housing, justice, education, and community services work in silos. The conversation also highlights why relational care, early intervention, multicultural community support, and shared accountability are essential if we truly want to keep children and families safe.

This is not just a policy conversation. It is about mothers, children, trauma, belonging, safety, and the difficult choices families are forced to make when the system fails them.

Panellists we have:-

1- Sophi Bruce, CEO, Centre for Relational Care; Director, Adaptive Leadership Australia

2- Danielle Bradtke, Lived Experience Expert, CEO and Founder of Foundations of Hope

3- Malini Raj, Executive Director, Australian Multicultural Women’s Alliance (AMWA)

4- Andrea Musulin, Founder, WA Child Protection Society and The Child Focused Safety Service WA; Director Safeguarding Program, Catholic Archdiocese of Perth and Safeguarding Lead, Police and Community Youth Centres.
