Early Childhood Development. Indigenous children are the most vulnerable group of children in Australia and disparities with non- Indigenous children in some outcomes have widened in recent years. The NPA on Indigenous Early Childhood Development commits $564 million of joint Commonwealth, State and Territory funding to improve access to antenatal care, teenage sexual and reproductive health services, child and maternal health services and integrated early childhood development and family support services.

States and Territories are focusing their efforts in areas with significant numbers of young Indigenous women and high numbers of births to teenagers.
