Children are at the heart of Pasifika families and society.

Parents, caregivers and families are tasked with the sacred duty of nurturing these precious treasures with care to help children reach their full potential:
The va (relationship) between parents/caregivers and children is sacred;
Applying Pasifika values in our parenting nurtures our children’s growth and wellbeing;
Recognising when Pasifika values may be misused helps protect children from harm;
Sexual abuse severely harms children’s wellbeing and growth.

Le Va will be introducing a series of resources designed to empower families and communities with the knowledge and tools needed to prevent child sexual abuse.
