A home for every child.
A community for every carer.
The Homeward Project: Creating opportunities to make a difference for children & families.
Children need families and families need communities.
The local Church can provide both.
We can all help create home for someone.
What role can you play in the Out-of-home Care space?
It takes a village.
The Homeward Project is a movement committed to seeing better outcomes for kids and families with an experience of the child protection system.
We provide pathways, resources and support to foster connection and collaboration across the Out-of-Home Care space.
We don’t all have to do the same thing, but we can all do something. And we’re better together.
