Families and Young People
We deliver programs under the NSW Government’s commissioned initiatives, supporting people early on to make the biggest difference and enabling them to live a safe, stable, and happy life.
We recognise that education plays a part in shaping the well-being of teenagers from a physical and psychological safety perspective.
Beyond the Gloves
Beyond the Gloves is a free program that empowers young girls between the ages of 11-18 through physical exercise and mentoring. This builds resilience, self-esteem and confidence and promotes body positivity and mental fitness. This results in increased school attendance, motivation, meaningful connections and peer support and improved relationships.
Families Forward
In partnership with the NSW Dept of Communities and Justice we run the Families Forward program. Families Forward is a short-term, early help program supporting families with dependent children who are experiencing multiple pressures, such as family violence recovery, housing instability, financial stress, or relationship challenges.
Delivered by LocalKind, the program provides flexible, needs-based support including coordination, advocacy, service navigation, and practical assistance to help families stabilise, stay safe, and build their capacity before issues escalate to crisis or statutory intervention. Families Forward works closely with community partners to ensure timely, coordinated responses and smooth transitions to ongoing supports where needed.
