About
Grandparents Raising Grandchildren supports grandparents who have assumed the role of primary carers of their grandchildren or related children, often in difficult family circumstances. The grandchildren are generally aged 0-12, but can include children up to 18 years. The service provides the care, support and assistance that grandparents need to help their grandchildren overcome the challenges they are facing in the absence of their parents so that they continue to meet child development milestones. The service works throughout the Midwest region of WA, including in Meekatharra, Mullewa, Mt Magnet, Cue and Northampton. Funded by the Dept. of Social Services (DSS)
