Helping children, young people and families in NSW:

Through an initial consultation, we get to know you and your individual circumstances.

Understanding your needs and building on your strengths, we identify the support your family needs to make positive change in your lives.

We’ll give you information and advice and help you connect to the services in your area, so you don’t have to retell your story.

We stay connected with you until you’re matched with the right services or support.

Family Connect and Support (FCS), assists children and young people who do not meet the statutory threshold for child protection intervention but would benefit from accessing support to address current problems and prevent future escalations. The new Family Connect and Support streamlines access for families, referrers, and service providers, providing consistency across the state, while maintaining local-level flexibility.

What will it cost?

The service is free. FCS is funded by the NSW Government, as apart of Keep Them Safe action plan to improve the safety and well-being of children in NSW. Pathfinders FCS operates Monday to Friday during business hours.
