Fostering a brighter future for families

BECOME A CARER

Foster carers come from all different backgrounds and all types of families. Most importantly, our carers all share a strong commitment to providing a safe and nurturing environment for children and young people in their care.

MOVING ON PROGRAM

Our Moving On program takes referrals from Child Safety Services for young people over 15 years old.



FOSTER CARE

Foster care is about providing a loving home to children and young people who have suffered abuse and neglect, and who are unable to remain safely at home.


Get Involved with KENNERLEY

Opening your heart and your home brings many rewards. More than you can imagine.

From the earliest beginnings of white settlement in Australia, children and young people have experienced abandonment and neglect.

Volunteers
Many people want to give back to their communities.

Being part of a family, or making a difference, is something we all aspire to do.

At Kennerley, our foster carers can:

  • be single or have a partner
  • be same sex couples
  • have children of their own, or not
  • own or rent their home
  • work, stay at home, study, or be retired
  • be from any culture or religion
