The Strategic Plan for Children and Young People 2022-2024 is the second whole-of-government plan for all children and young people in NSW.
Launched in April 2022 and informed by the voices of more than 41,000 children and young people in NSW, this Plan brings together initiatives undertaken across government under six core commitment areas. Grounded in the articulated needs and hopes of children and young people, the goal of this Plan is to create a future where all children and young people have the supports they need to thrive.
The Plan plays a key role in bridging the gap between Government policies and initiatives, and children and young people's voices and perspectives.
