Welcome to ACCSA (Australian Children's Contact Services Association)
ACCSA is a not-for-profit Association that promotes the need for the compulsory accreditation of all Children’s Contact Services (CCS), supports and delivers sector-wide training, and fosters networking and information sharing. ACCSA is voluntary and independent.
Our current activities include lobbying for the regulation and accreditation of both funded, full fee-paying and privately operated CCSs. We promote the development and provision of CCS-specific training, a comprehensive, information-based web presence for Affiliates, and those who refer to a CCS and those needing to use a service.
All Government funded, privately-operated and full fee-paying CCSs are eligible to become Affiliates of ACCSA.
Affiliation means that the service supports and endorses ACCSA’s objectives. An affiliation with ACCSA does not denote that the affiliated service maintains practice standards according to any codes, standards or frameworks that the association has previously developed (i.e. ACCSA does not accredit, regulate, monitor service delivery quality or process complaints).
ACCSA fully supports the establishment of a National CCS Accreditation system as per Recommendation 54 of the Australian Law Reform Commission’s Review of the Family Law System.
