Family Support in Schools

Family Support in Schools works with the whole family to provide wrap-around support and holistically meet a student鈥檚 needs by addressing barriers to learning within a wider social context, enabling them to participate fully in their learning and development.

Barriers impacting the student or family may include relationship conflict, family violence, challenging behaviours at school or home, housing issues, substance abuse within the family, poor health, developmental issues, or financial concerns.

This service builds on the counselling and support that jmcomic天堂漫画官网 has been providing to schools for over 30 years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is it for?

Families are eligible for Family Support in Schools if they have at least one child enrolled in a Catholic school involved with the program. Check with your school to confirm if they are currently participating in Family Support in Schools from jmcomic天堂漫画官网.

How does it work?

Having determined the program is a suitable intervention for the family, the program works with the family through:

  • case management over a 12-week period or short-term support through three sessions and referrals as necessary
  • weekly face-to-face meetings conducted at home, school, CatholicCare offices, or agreed community locations
  • ongoing phone support available throughout the week.

Case management begins with assessments to create a tailored case plan with specific goals, providing support tailored to the individual needs of the student and their family.
