Our family support services are diverse and include support groups, Family Connect and Support, playgroups, youth services, casework support and much more.
We provide home and centre based support for children, young people, individuals and families across the Lower North Shore, Northern Beaches, Hornsby and Ku-ring-gai areas.
We will listen to the challenges you are facing, do an assessment of your needs and if we can support your family, our experienced Case Workers can assist with a range of challenges such as child development or behaviour issues, family breakdown, social isolation, mental illness, substance abuse, domestic violence, gambling, housing issues, childcare or other support issues.
We recognise that all families have strengths but some need help in difficult times.
