As many of you may now be aware, the Family Law Pathways Network program nationally will conclude on 30 June 2026 following the decision by the Attorney-General’s Department to cease funding for the program.
While this news is incredibly disappointing for the family law and support sectors nationwide, we want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank each and every one of you who has supported the FLPN Northern Rivers Network over the years. Whether you attended events, presented at workshops, participated in webinars, contributed to discussions, or simply engaged with the network, your involvement has helped strengthen collaboration, build connections, and improve referral pathways across our region for families navigating separation and related challenges.
The Attorney-General’s Department has acknowledged the significant contribution made by the networks over many years and has confirmed that this decision is not a reflection of the quality or value of the work undertaken by networks across Australia.
As this will be our final newsletter, we have included a quick reference guide for parenting support services and group program referrals, along with a copy of the online calendar and service directory as a future reference tool for practitioners and services.
It has truly been a privilege to work alongside such a passionate and dedicated sector. Our hope is that the relationships, connections, and knowledge gained through FLPN activities over the years will continue to support and strengthen your work with families across the Northern Rivers, while continuing to enhance collaboration and referral pathways locally long into the future.
Thank you again for your ongoing support, commitment, and contribution to the FLPN network over the years. Please click here for your copy: https://mailchi.mp/flpn.com.au/newsletters-june
