Fostering with us
Fostering with us
At Althea Projects Foster and Kinship Program the carers we support come from many different backgrounds and vary as much as the children and young people they look after. However they all have one thing in common, they are all passionate, motivated and want to assist children and young people in out of home care to be provided with the opportunity to reach their full potential.
Althea Projects Foster and Kinship Program supports both foster and kinship carers which are types of family-based care for children and young people who cannot stay in their own home because they have been harmed or are at risk of harm.
Althea Projects Foster and Kinship Program is a program of Althea Projects Incorporated and is funded by the Department of Children, Youth Justice, and Multicultural Affairs. Althea Projects Foster and Kinship Program works in partnership with the department to provide the best possible outcome for children and young people.
At Althea Projects Foster and Kinship Program we are committed to ensuring that as part of the care team we work hard to stay child centred and family focused, and to ensure that the needs of the carers and children are met to a high standard and without delay.
Althea Projects Foster and Kinship is located at Unit 1, 5 – 11 Fleming Street, Aitkenvale and supports foster and kinship carers in the Townsville, Burdekin, Ingham and Charters Towers region.
