Without access to locally-run playgroups and support for parents, Indigenous children can fall behind in developmental milestones. We partner with remote Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities and employ local women who facilitate playgroups to support children and parents, conducted in both traditional language and English to increase "both-ways" learning. When we invest in a child’s early years, we invest in their future.

Family violence is often a topic kept private, but this secrecy can cause more harm. Channels of Hope is a culture and faith-based program that aims to combat gender-based violence through sessions about family harmony, respectful relationships and violence prevention. In collaboration and partnership with local communities, we explore ways to combat violence together.
