Help improve the payment and financial support available to carers!

The Australian Institute of Family Studies is doing a review of the payments and financial help that is available to foster, kinship and permanent/guardian carers nationwide. Carers are invited to a workshop to share their views and help to improve the payments and financial help available to them.

Carers who participate in an online workshop will receive a $90 voucher. To express interest in joining the workshop, please fill in this online form.

For more information about the project visit the Safe and Supported webpage contact AIFS: phone (03 9214 7987), text (0437 147 968) or email: OOHC-carersreview@aifs.gov.au.
