Adult Safeguarding Forum discussing abuse prevention

The Public Advocate is inviting you to this special adult safeguarding event on Thursday, 9 March from 10:00am – 12:00pm at Parliament House in Brisbane. The forum will provide a valuable opportunity to hear more about the Public Advocate’s Adult Safeguarding Project.

The project resulted in two key reform proposals for Queensland – the appointment of an independent Adult Safeguarding Commissioner and the creation of regionally-organised Adult Safeguarding Networks across Queensland.

The forum will also feature several influential guest speakers, including:

• Kay Patterson – Australian Age Discrimination Commissioner
• Robert Fitzgerald – NSW Ageing and Disability Commissioner
• and more to be announced.

RSVPs close on Wednesday, 22 February 2023 at 11:59pm and spaces are limited. Register here.
