Just as importantly, our carers keep our Aboriginal children and young people connected to their Aboriginal culture, community and families.

VACCA appreciates the tremendous work our carers do for our kids. Thank you!

Our foster &kinship carers are volunteers sharing their homes, energy, time and strength to care for Aboriginal kids who can't live at home.

Kinship carers are kith or kin - family members or family friends of the child and their parents: aunts, uncles, grandparents, siblings etc.

... and kinship carers.
