Our In-home Support program provides a safety net for families who are facing challenging circumstances, such as social isolation, single parenthood, anxiety, depression, or the demands of raising children with complex needs.
Families are matched to a compatible, trained volunteer Support Worker, who provides the practical and emotional support needed to manage the demands of parenthood.
It takes a village to raise children but sadly, some families don’t have a village.
Our volunteer Support Workers provide 3-4 hours of support per week for a minimum of 6 months to a maximum of 12 months.
This program not only assists families to adjust to the demands of parenthood, but also benefits the volunteers, who re-engage with the community and find a sense of purpose through their work.
