Advocacy Services

At the heart of our work at Centre For Families (C4F) is the aim to offer meaningful support to both children and parents. We understand that transitions, especially ones related to family separation, can be difficult. However, through our work at our child contact centres, we ensure that everyone's voice is heard, that they fully understand the process and that their rights are upheld.

Supporting another person to express their views and wishes is a crucial aspect of what we do. We create a safe and caring environment that empowers individuals to share their feelings and perspectives openly. By doing so, we can better understand their needs and concerns, helping us shape our services to provide the most effective assistance possible.

Helping individuals understand the processes involved is another key part of our mission. The complexities of family separations and contact arrangements can be overwhelming. Our role is to make these processes transparent and easier to navigate. We provide clear explanations, answer questions, and guide individuals through each step, ensuring they are never left in the dark.

Lastly, we're deeply committed to ensuring everyone's rights are respected and protected. This means we actively work to ensure that parents and children are treated fairly and that their rights are always at the forefront of our efforts. This could involve providing information about legal rights, advocating for fair treatment, or connecting families with additional resources for legal support.

In short, C4F is here to provide compassionate, comprehensive support for families navigating the complexities of separation and contact arrangements. We believe in empowering individuals, demystifying processes, and standing up for everyone's rights to ensure the best outcomes for all involved.
