| About
| ACYCP is the new acronym for the National Organization of Child Care Workers Associations. NOCCWA, as it was called, was the first national organization created to network and work for the associations of the various states and provinces. It was founded in the early 1970's and was trans national in outlook from the beginning. NOCCWA cohosted its first International Child and Youth Care Conference, International Year of Youth, in 1985. Since that time, NOCCWA has cohosted that event with member associations alternating between the United States and Canada. NOCCWA also was the central force behind an initiative to realize Ethics of Child and Youth Care Professionals. This Code of Ethics is becoming recognized throughout North America as the foundation regarding standards and ethics for the profession.

| Association of Childrens Welfare Agencies
Level 2
323 Castlereagh Street
Sydney, NSW

|
| About
| The Association of Child Caring Agencies was formed in 1958 to represent non-govern-ment agencies which provided alternative accommodation and care services for children and young people aged from birth to eighteen years. These were the adoption, fostering and residential care services (children's homes) which shared the care of the community's children with the state government of the day. An understanding of the unique history of children's welfare in New South Wales explains the parallel development of services by government and non-government agencies.
The Association's function since those early days has been to promote good practice amongst service providers -- whether government or non-government -- and to promote policies which enhance the role of non-government agencies as legitimate partners with government in providing services to, and on behalf of, the community.
In 1987 the name of the Association was changed in recognition of the changing role of member agencies. The Association of Childrens Welfare Agencies now reflects the responsibility of non-government agencies to be concerned with the welfare of the 'whole child' by not just providing a substitute care environment, but rather assisting the child and young person to 'find their place in the world'.
