Parents & Carers
As well as supporting people with disabilities and their families, we believe in developing opportunities for parents and carers to ensure their lives, as well as the lives of those they care for and their immediate families, are enriched. We do this through assisting parents and carers toĀ participate in their local community,Ā foster relationships that strengthen informal networksĀ provide information and support to plan for their future through key stages of life.
1.Ā Caring for the Carer
To overcome some of the barriers that are associated with caring for a family member with a disability, Interchange Illawarra believes in providing holistic support to parents and carers.
2.Ā Workshops & Information
We can provide one-on-one support to parents & carers to assist with the development of visual aids to support communication with the person you care for.
3.Ā We Value Your Feedback
Your feedback, as well as ideas and suggestions for different activities is very much appreciated.
