The Aboriginal Stronger Families Program was established in May 2013. The program partners with Glastonbury Community Services and is located between Glastonbury and Wathaurong, however it is intended that the program will move to Wathaurong in the future. The program offers intensive and long term (up to 12 months) family case support to enable Aboriginal children who are at imminent risk of being placed in care for the first time to remain at home with their parents or to support the child’s return to their parents care when safe to do so. The program works closely with the family concerned and Department of Human Services (DHS).
