Kinship Support Group

We run regular kinship care support groups that bring carers together to share stories and experiences.

A Berry Street staff member from the Kinship Program runs the sessions which are held in a child friendly environment.

Being part of a kinship carer group has many benefits. You can:

• learn about the services available to you and the children in your care
• get lots of useful information about supports and how you can help children to develop and grow
• feel more connected and less isolated
• share stories and get advice from people who’ve had similar experiences to you
• give the children in your care an opportunity to connect with other children in the same situation, which can help them feel less isolated.

The Wellington Kinship Support Group meets on the second Tuesday of each month.

We meet at Gregg Hall (behind St Columbus Kindergarten) 131 Raymond Street Sale, from 10am to 12pm

Free Morning Tea supplied. All Kinship Carers are welcome!
