The Child Deaths 2013 Annual Report is Family and Community Services’ (FACS) fourth public report examining our involvement with the families of children and young people who died and were known to FACS. By providing contextual information about the deaths of children who were known to FACS, this report aims to provide learning opportunities for all practitioners who work with children, whether they are within the child protection system or providing other services to families. The report also aims to enhance the public’s understanding of the complexities of child protection work and the underlying factors of disadvantage that affect so many families in NSW.
