Family Support Service, Sunshine Coast Catchment, Moreton Region
The Queensland Government is committed to building a child and family support system with a greater focus on supporting families to provide a safe and secure home for their children. The vision for the Department of Child Safety, Youth and Women (the department) is for Queenslanders to be safe and thriving in families, communities and culture. The department provides funding to non-government organisations to provide support to vulnerable and at risk families with a focus on supporting positive family functioning and assisting families to effectively nurture, care for, and protect their children.
This investment aims to build a more responsive, efficient and effective family support response for children and young people (aged 10-14 years), and their families in the Sunshine Coast catchment of the Moreton Region who have disengaged or are at risk of disengaging from school. A key component of the response will be the co-location within Nambour State College. The service will build on existing family support systems by establishing a targeted response through needs assessment, case management, practical in-home support, individual/family counselling and strategies for parenting adolescents.
