NSW funds new Aboriginal family support program for children
New South Wales has launched a historic Aboriginal family preservation program funded with $350 million, designed to keep at-risk Indigenous children with their families while allowing them to tell their own stories. Co-created by First Nations families, Aboriginal Community-Controlled Organisations, and the NSW government, the program takes a holistic approach to child protection while preserving children's cultural identities. This initiative is part of broader reforms to address the overrepresentation of Indigenous children in out-of-home care.
