Attend a Free Foster Care Information Session – We Need You!

It’s halfway through the school year, and for many children they are thriving. But some kids in our community face added challenges – and right now, there is an urgent shortage of foster carers to support them with safe, stable homes.

There are children in our local community who need a safe place to stay. Could that be with you?

Anglicare Victoria is urgently looking for local foster carers — people who can offer emergency, respite, or longer-term care. Whether it’s a few nights or a few months. There are options that are flexible to suit your lifestyle and availability.

Carers come from all walks of life. You don’t need to be a superhero. You don’t have to have had children of your own, and you don’t need to be home full-time. What matters most is that you can offer a safe, stable, and caring environment. We also provide full training, 24/7 support, and a tax-free financial reimbursement.

Join one of our free upcoming online info sessions to learn more:

• Wednesday 24 June @ 6.30pm
• Tuesday 7 July @ 12.30pm
• Thursday 23 July @ 7.00pm

The sessions run for one hour and give you an opportunity to gather info and ask questions in a friendly environment.
