There is a serious need in the community for more activities aimed at introducing people to each other, lifting community spirits and to assist people and families who are experiencing difficult times.  The Child & Parent Support Program organises quite a few activities aiming to meet these needs:

The Child & Parent Support Program aims to sustain and expand existing parenting and family support services in the area.  We aim to create opportunities for new families to the area and those new to parenting to access a range of supportive and engaging services.  The program assists families to participate in activities which enable parents or carers to establish their own social support networks and their children to participate in play-based learning.  Families with particular needs can avail of support or counselling.
