In doing so, SNAICC has the following purposes: 1. To advocate for the cultural, emotional, social, spiritual, physical and economic needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. 2. To pursue Indigenous community based and controlled responses to the welfare and support needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families. 3. To promote the early childhood development needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. 4. To work towards the elimination of all forms of poverty and confront injustice which impacts upon the lives of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children. 5. To promote public awareness and understanding of the historical and contemporary practices whereby Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children have been forcibly removed from their families and the ongoing consequences of these practices. 6. To encourage, support and assist member organisations and Indigenous communities to develop independent and sustainable responses to the needs of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and families. 7. To collaborate with other Indigenous peoples, governments, non-government agencies, the corporate sector, international organisations and others in pursuing the rights of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.
