The Kinship Care program provides care and support for Aboriginal children who are unable to live with their parents. The children are cared for by a relative, close friend or a member of their community in the carer’s own home.
Children may be in kinship care because of concerns about their protection, or because their parents are experiencing difficulties and need a break.
We offer
- Placement support and case management
- Information and advice to Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal kinship carers and permanent carers
- Support Kinship Care families
- Cultural connection support
- Group support and activities.
