Communities For Children
The Australian Government's Stonger Families and Communities Stategy: the Communities for Children initiative, aims to assist children aged 0-5 years to have the best possible start in life and to influence the contexts within which they live - their family and community, and the broader social, economic and cultural environments.

Communities for Children takes a community development approach to improving outcomes for young children and their families, incorporating key principles such as collaborative action, building on community strengths and contributing to family and community capacity building.
