Incredible turnout at @wamuseum to launch the #100FamiliesWa report, an Australian-first research project looking into the lived experience of entrenched disadvantage.

To achieve systemic change, government and the services sector must work together with the community #WAPol

Welcome to the Noongar season of Birak! Birak is the first summer so is very dry and hot. It is also the time the sacred Moodjar (Christmas Tree) blooms. The Moodja holds a special place in the hearts of many Noongar people... https://t.co/RaO0rbGrye via

Great news, with new funding announced to expand Financial Counselling Network services across Perth. Today we came together with our partner agencies to look at the opportunities ahead and the great work we can do together to support those most vulnerable in our community!

Why is it that we still ask ‘why didn't she leave?’ when the real question should be ‘where would she go?’

From our CEO 👇as we've been told funding will be cut back next year to many of the vital services we provide to families going through relationship breakdown such as family mediation, supporting children after separation and specialised domestic violence support
