Ruby's Reunification Program SA

Ruby's Reunification Program SA We help young people and their parents or caregivers to resolve conflict and improve relationships. We have four Ruby’s houses in South Australia.

Ruby's Reunification Program helps keep families together and young people out of the homelessness sector. We also welcome young people who are currently not at home, but would like to find a way to return by providing:

- a safe place for the young person to stay, spending some nights at Ruby’s and some at home where appropriate

- family counselling

- 24-hour therapeutic support

- access to ta

ilored services for families. Ruby’s supports 12-to-17-year-olds who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. Ruby's is a free service for participants and their families. We work alongside parents and the young person to help bring families together who are experiencing relationship difficulties or conflict. While everybody’s stay at Ruby’s is different, it involves the young person spending time at one of our Ruby's houses. They can also spend some time at home while going through counselling with their family. Our youth workers and counsellors support the young person to attend school or day activities. This can help them to build confidence and independence skills, while staying in regular contact with parents and caregivers. These provide 24-hour support and supervision and are located in Enfield, Thebarton, Edwardstown and Mount Gambier. We also provide outreach counselling across metropolitan Adelaide and in the lower south-east of the state. About Uniting Communities:

It's into the second week of Pride Month! We hope you've got some fantastic things planned for the rest of the month!

Let’s be honest every month is Pride Month at Bfriend! We bring joy, vibrancy and sometimes a little glitter into everything we do. But we also know that while some of our team are loud‑and‑sparkling kind of people, others show up in ways that are steady and low‑key and the same is true across our whole community. Our journeys are entirely personal, and whether bold or subtle, every expression of who we are is valid. At the heart of it all, every one of us deserves to be seen, valued, and free to belong🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Understanding your rights can make a big difference, especially when things feel uncertain. If you’re a young person in SA, or supporting a young person, the Legal Services Commission of SA has released updated fact sheets this month. They cover a range of everyday legal situations from interactions with police to online safety and bullying. They're easy to read and designed to help young people make informed decisions and know where they stand.

You'll find them here: https://lsc.sa.gov.au/cb_pages/youth_publications.php
