The Smith Family - Communities for Children Capricorn

The Smith Family has been the Facilitating Partner for the Australian Government’s Capricorn Region Communities for Children Facilitating Partner (CfC FP) since 2011.  We facilitate the delivery of a range of services designed to improve outcomes for children from 0 to 12 years old and their families within the local community.  By taking a place-based and 'whole of community' approach, Capricorn CfC FP aims to help build a strong community that is inclusive and supportive of all families living in Capricorn Local Government Area.
