PCA Families support families joined through permanent care, kinship care and adoption. Our families are diverse but share a common goal. They aim to provide a safe, stable, nurturing and permanent home to the children in their care. They include grandparents, aunts, uncles and older siblings providing kinship care; families who were previously the child’s foster carers; couples who have struggling with fertility and have been through IVF; LGBTQI+ couples; single people; and people with altruistic motivations who provide a permanent home to children.
PCA Families believe strong parents and carers support stronger children and we support our families to achieve this in a range of ways. Access our flyer here to find out about the many ways in which we can support you.
