FACESS is committed to strengthening the safety, wellbeing and future of children, young people and families.

FACESS is committed to breaking cycles of system involvement by addressing the overrepresentation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, young people, and families in the child protection and youth justice systems. We aim to reduce homelessness, disengagement, and disconnection by offering culturally safe, wraparound support that nurtures healing, strengthens identity, and promotes long-term stability. As a trauma-informed and youth-led organisation, FACESS is grounded in cultural integrity, respect, and self-determination. Our Community Kincare approach weaves together culture, connection, and care—creating safe spaces where young people can grow strong in who they are, stay rooted in their communities, and confidently shape their own futures.
