The End Child Detention Coalition is currently made up of 26 member organisations from across Australia, amongst which there is a total of 150 staff, around 1,200 volunteers and approximately 150,000 supporters across all States and Territories.
Collectively, these organisations possess a wealth of experience in policy and advocacy, as well as years of experience working effectively together. The End Child Detention Coalition advocates for the release of children from immigration detention and takes the position that detention is never in the best interests of a child.
Our membership reflects a diverse cross section of Australia’s civil society. The coalition also has collaborative partnerships with many organisations based both in Australia and overseas.
