We help by:

  • Working in disadvantaged communities with children, their siblings and their parents to help build stronger, more resilient families and to create opportunities for change
  • Assisting families in developing new skills for managing conflict and crises
  • Working with local communities to support families and children
  • Supporting grandparents who have primary care of their grandchildren


Pathways away from homelessness

We help by:

  • Offering services that prevent homelessness from occurring such as mental health support, financial counselling, literacy support, and family and individual support
  • Providing crisis and transitional accommodation when homelessness does occur

 

Pathways through a successful youth

We help by:

  • Assisting young people to overcome drug and alcohol dependency, and avoid anti-social behaviour
  • Intervening early to assist young people at risk of homelessness or family breakdown
  • Assisting young people to stay at or re-enter school, take up other education opportunities or engage in training and employment
  • Working with young people to build their self-esteem and help them become more resilient

 

Early Learning Services

We provide high quality early learning services to enrich each child’s learning potential while recognising and supporting their unique social, emotional, physical and intellectual needs. The service is child centred, family focused and connected to the community.
