Call for Independent Review of Alleged Ethical and Privacy Concerns Involving Lilian


Call for Independent Review of Alleged Ethical and Privacy Concerns Involving Lilian
The Issue
We, the undersigned, express serious concern regarding public conduct attributed to Lilian Raheem, who has publicly represented herself as a social worker and is reported to be affiliated with MacKillop Family Services in Australia.
Concerns have been raised online about the handling of private communications and the public discussion of sensitive family matters, including references to children. If substantiated, such conduct may be inconsistent with widely accepted standards of confidentiality, safeguarding, and professional responsibility.
We note that formal complaints have been submitted to relevant bodies, including:
- MacKillop Family Services (Australia)
- Australian Association of Social Workers
This petition does not seek to determine guilt. Rather, it underscores the importance of ensuring that concerns of this nature are reviewed thoroughly, fairly, and transparently.
We respectfully call on:
- Relevant professional bodies in Australia
- The employer referenced above, where applicable
to:
- Conduct a fair and independent investigation
- Review adherence to ethical, confidentiality, and safeguarding standards
- Take appropriate action if any breaches are established
The protection of children, respect for personal privacy, and integrity of professional conduct must remain paramount.
This petition is made in good faith, in the interest of upholding ethical standards and protecting vulnerable individuals.
Signed
