3. National Redress Scheme

The National Redress Scheme provides support to people who experienced institutional child sexual abuse.

The Department of Seniors, Disability Services and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Partnerships is committed to the continued support of the National Redress Scheme.

If you or someone you know experienced sexual abuse as a child in a Queensland institution, including children’s homes, schools, foster care, youth detention centres, missions and dormitories, you may be eligible for redress under the Scheme.
