Families

For many families, the changes that have accompanied COVID19 require significant adjustments.  Some family members are now working from home, others have lost employment and there are children who are home schooling for the first time. Our Kindness in Families Campaign aims to support families working through some of these challenges. There are five parts to the Campaign:
  • New Mums - support for new mums HERE
  • Grateful families - something to help keep all family members busy and grateful HERE
  • Families that bend - stories and strategies for adapting to change (coming soon) 
  • Kitchen Table - messages about respect for older people in families HERE
  • Street by Street - understanding support for friends experiencing family violence  (coming soon) 
  • Kids in Quarantine - support for living with kids in a Quarantine Hotel (coming soon)
  • Leadership in Lockdown - supporting residents in hard lockdown in Melbourne HERE
  • More Information - support for families/individuals from drummond street services HERE

Volunteer with us - Campaign Champions play a pivotal role in engaging community members in our Campaigns. The Champions use their own networks to spread the word about the Campaign and to gather stories and acts of kindness. As a volunteer you can work as many or as few hours as you like – and volunteer at times that work for you. Please follow the link to our volunteer platform HERE for more information.
