Catherine Liddle is the CEO of SNAICC, the national body that represents Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children and their families. Every year, Catherine and her team document how First Nations children are faring, and how they&rsquo;re treated. And yet again, the picture is devastating. Catherine&rsquo;s report shows that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children are more likely to be reported to authorities, they&rsquo;re more likely to be taken away from their families and they spend more time institutionalised. For every dollar the government spends on this, only 16 cents goes to helping families &ndash; the rest is on taking children away, causing enormous harm. Today, SNAICC CEO Catherine Liddle on the damage the child protection system is doing to First Nations children &ndash; and what needs to be done to break the cycle. &nbsp; If you enjoy&nbsp;7am, the best way you can support us is by making a contribution at <a href="http://7ampodcast.com.au/support">7ampodcast.com.au/support</a>. &nbsp; Socials: Stay in touch with us on <a href="http://www.instagram.com/7ampodcast">Instagram</a> Guest: SNAICC CEO Catherine Liddle Photo:&nbsp;AAP Image/Lukas CochSee <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
