Support for foster families and young people
We offer a range of resources to support foster families, children in care, and the broader community.
Practical support, not a leaflet
Training and education
Comprehensive pre-service and ongoing training on trauma-informed care, child development, behaviour management and cultural competency, plus workshops, seminars and support groups.
Support services
Case management to help foster families navigate the process and access community resources, plus counselling, therapy and mental health services for children in care.
Respite care
Coordinated respite so foster parents can rest, recharge or attend to personal matters. We recruit and train respite carers ourselves.
Parenting support
Classes, workshops and support groups to build parenting skills, strengthen attachment and address challenging behaviours.
Educational support
Advocacy for a young person's educational needs, accommodations and tutoring, and partnership with schools to smooth transitions.
Healthcare services
Access to medical, dental, vision and mental health care, and help navigating appointments and coverage.
