KIN works to share information and work with other organisations to:

• Promote kinship care – it delivers excellent outcomes for the children and is the only form of out-of- home-care that keeps the child within its biological family
• Highlight programs and research that document the outcomes of kinship care
• Advocate on behalf of kinship carers to ensure that their views are central in any discourse about kinship care
• Support KIN members in their endeavours related to kinship family care
