We recognise that some families find it difficult to provide a safe and nurturing environment in which children can thrive and have a solid foundation for success. For young children and their families, we offer assistance so they have every opportunity to succeed. Firstly we seek to understand their situation, then we help them implement ways to overcome their more immediate challenges and build resilience for the future. In implementing these solutions, we work with the existing strengths of the children and their families. We offer strategies for helping families and communities to both become stronger and be able to nurture and support their children. We provide a range of services along the continuum of care, in the form of prevention and early intervention, counselling, case management, and residential programs. Our services give parents and children the individual support they need to assist the entire family back on their feet. ![]() View our families and children mini site Here are some of our services that help Australian families:
