Our network

For our work to be effective within a community, we rely on the collaboration of local organisations to:

 

  • make sure there is an integrated network of support for our children, young people and families.
  • help us deliver services, particularly when children, young people and their families live in a different location to where
    their family member is in prison.
    Across NSW, ACT, VIC and QLD, we have established local relationships with:

 

  • Centrelink
  • Medicare Locals
  • Area Health Services
  • Employment and Education providers
  • Migrant Resource and Resettlement Centres
  • Neighbourhood and Community Centres
  • Family Support Services and Youth Services
  • Carers and Partner Support Groups
  • Domestic Violence Support Services/Groups
  • FaCS Brighter Futures and Out of Home Care providers
  • Tenancy Advice Services
  • Drug and Alcohol Services
  • Legal Aid

While the role is challenging, all the positive aspects make it the most rewarding job and it has taught me appreciation, respect and humility.
