The Foster Care Association of Victoria (FCAV) is conducting a state-wide foster carer census to hear from all accredited current, past or on-hold foster carers and learn more about your experience, and how foster carers can best be supported in Victoria.
The online survey period has been extended and will now close 19th May 2026 to give every carer a chance to be heard.
Your information is vital evidence of the circumstances, experiences and needs of foster carers providing care to the children and young people in care in Victoria.
