A core function of the Statewide Children’s Resource Program is to develop resources for children who are experiencing homelessness and family violence.
This year we have developed a booklet that aims to provide children with helpful information and options for them to express their feelings and emotions. The booklet has been designed, illustrated, and prepared to be available for agencies as a PDF to print for each child accessing your service and engaging with support. We hope that this will encourage meaningful conversation, healing and fun for all ages. (This is not designed for children when the family is not engaged with a support service).
This document can be printed in A3 or A4. Please set the printer to ‘Portrait’ and ‘flip on short edge’.
If you require any assistance with printing (excluding costs) please feel free to contact This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
What are the peak bodies saying. We hear from CHP, CHFV and VCOSS
Council to Homeless Persons (CHP)
The Council to Homeless persons has congratulated the Victorian Government on the significant investments in housing, homelessness and family violence announced in this year's State Budget. While many of the commitments outlined in the Budget had been announced previously, they are worth recognising a second time; in particular, the Government’s major housing centrepiece Homes for Victorians, which includes $1 billion commitment to a Social Housing Growth fund. The other big news in this year's budget was the $1.9 billion investment in family violence services. Given the insidious relationship between homelessness and family violence, this commitment is highly commended.
