Welcome to the Fost Care Association of the ACT

Welcome

The Foster Care Association of the ACT is an organisation run by foster, kinship and respite carers for foster, kinship and respite carers.

We help with:

Individual advocacy - you are not alone, no matter what the issue;
Peer support - we understand because we are carers too;
Learning and training opportunities – this gives better outcomes for everyone;
Lobbying to improve the system – we want a quality system and practices in the alternative home-based care system;
Ensuring the carer voice is heard – nothing about us, without us!

If you are a ACT carer and want to participate in our Carer Forum and access confidential parts of the site, please register with us.

and anyone else with an interest in statutory care arrangements in the ACT. This is our new website. Like all websites, it is a "work in progress".
