Please note that this funding is available only for access by workers in Specialist Homelessness Services for clients experiencing homelessness, housing crisis and/or family violence.
The Homeless Children’s Brokerage Support has been established to enhance opportunities for children experiencing homelessness and/or family violence to:
- Engage and maintain their education (including early education services such as childcare and kindergarten).
- Reduce social isolation by enhancing access to a range of support, social and recreational opportunities within their community.
- Provide social and emotional growth opportunities for children and provide opportunities to increase relational bonds between parents/carers and children.
The Homeless Children’s Brokerage Support also aims to provide further encouragement to homelessness support providers to integrate child focused assessment and case planning into their work practice.
Please ensure that you carefully read the eligibility guidelines and contact the Children’s Resource Program Coordinator, who can provide you with any additional information required. Please email completed applications to childrensresourceprogram@cnv.org.au
