Children & Family Programs
When our family is strong, our culture thrives
Waltja’s Children and Family Intensive Support (CaFIS) program focuses on the health, safety and wellbeing of children and families. We collaborate closely with parents and caregivers to provide essential support services to ensure children grow up in secure, nurturing environments. Our program helps to:
- Empower families to nurture children in their culture.
- Build confidence and capability in parents and family members.
- Facilitate access to necessary services.
- Address concerns impacting children’s safety and wellbeing.
CaFIS
This program supports families in recognising their strengths to create positive, lasting changes in their children's lives, focusing on improved health, safety, and wellbeing. Our staff collaborates with parents and carers to assist families with children experiencing neglect or at risk.
