CWCs are based in local health districts and support health workers and services in preventing abuse and neglect and responding early, whenever a child safety, welfare or wellbeing concern is raised.

CWCs are available to advise health workers about CWUs and have a detailed understanding of entry points into local health services. They respond to complex cases involving vulnerable families, children and young people within the LHD, as referred on by the CWU. They also work closely with other Government departments and agencies, providing advice about referral pathways and information sharing.
