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
Dear readers,
Please read this document carefully. It lists budget initiatives included in the 2026-27 Victorian state budget. There is considerable assistance for vulnerable families contained in this package of initiatives.
Cheers,
Anne McLeish, OAM
