About SRS

Introduction

In 2005 SNAICC established the National Indigenous Family and Children's Resource Service with funding received through the Australian Government's Early Childhood - Invest to Grow Initiative of the Stronger Families and Communities Strategy.

In 2006 SNAICC officially named this service the SNAICC Resource Service (SRS).

The SRS works across the family and children's services sector with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community based services and other services working directly with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children.

A newly designed web presence for the SRS is currently being developed and will be hosted on the SNAICC website in the coming months.

 

Four Priority Areas

Through extensive consultation, SNAICC determined Four Priority Areas for the SRS , which are important and directly relevant to our history and overall mission.
The SRS will produce and distribute resources and information to family and children's services across the country in relation to each priority area.

The four priority areas are as follows

  1. Early childhood development, parenting and child rearing
  2. Child and family wellbeing
  3. Prevention of family violence, child abuse and child neglect
  4. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander governance and organisational development.

 

Staff contacts

Additional information on the SRS, its priorities and projects is available from the SNAICC office or contact one of these SRS staff members

 

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Resource Services and Support Units

The SRS website will be building resource relationships, growing online catalogues and improving access to the materials and services already developed and maintained by all our members. The SRS clearinghouse will be working closely with the key resource agencies and Indigenous Professional Support Units listed here and other agencies crrently resourcing Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families and children.
