Family Support Newcastle provides services that promote the well-being of children and their families, of individuals, and communities. We often work in partnership with other services to provide more options for the families we support. We are inclusive of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people from other culturally diverse backgrounds and those who experience discrimination and disadvantage.

Our services include:

Intensive assistance to families where there is serious risk to children
Counselling and individual assistance either in the home, a centre or agreed venue
Therapeutic group programs with associated child development activities
Supported playtime activities
Support to women leaving domestic violence
Support to men in their fathering role and in their relationships
Approaches that are informed by research, evidence and best practice

Our services are free, respectful, accessible and accommodating of people with varying levels of ability. Families and staff are given opportunities to engage with the Family Support Newcastle community and to participate in decision making. We strive towards ensuring our work is evidence informed with the skills and practice to reflect this approach.
