Bravehearts is Australia’s leading child protection organisation dedicated to the prevention and treatment of child sexual abuse.
Each year, we proudly celebrate Bravehearts Day. Bravehearts Day is dedicated to raising funds and awareness for the prevention of child sexual abuse. Established in 1997, the day was previously known as Bravehearts White Balloon Day. Bravehearts Day continues the legacy of White Balloon Day, which is credited for breaking the silence around child sexual abuse and creating a cultural shift in how Australians understand and respond to child sexual abuse and survivors of this crime.
Bravehearts Vision
A world where people, communities and systems all work together to protect children from sexual abuse.
Bravehearts Mission
To provide a coordinated and holistic approach to the prevention and treatment of child sexual abuse.
