💙 A HEARTFELT THANK YOU TO ST JAMES CHURCH 💙
A huge thank you to Minister Graham and the wonderful congregation at St James Uniting Church Glenfield for their ongoing generosity and support for the families in need at Macarthur Family & Youth Services.
We are incredibly grateful for the generous donation of a wonderful variety of food. Your kindness helps us support local families and individuals who may be doing it tough, and ensures that people in our community know they are not alone.

This year's theme, "50 Years of Deadly", marked a massive milestone - five decades of the national NAIDOC movement and celebrating Indigenous culture, resilience and resistance. Our caseworkers Nerida, Greta and Natalie attended NAIDOC Event at Campbelltown Stadium.

Message from the Director,

Dear Community,
I am incredibly proud of the dedicated work our staff continue to do every day in supporting families and making a real difference in their lives.
Every day, our staff walk alongside families facing some of life's most difficult challenges and every day, they show up with compassion, skill, and unwavering dedication.
What strikes me most is not the numbers, but the stories behind them. Our caseworkers have sat with parents in crisis, helped children find their voice, connected families to safe housing, and supported survivors of domestic violence to reclaim their lives. This is difficult, often invisible work and it changes lives. I am profoundly proud of every member of our team.

MFYS delivers important services to families in their homes. We transport clients to a number of appointments including medical, counselling, schools and more, to address their needs. The majority of the work undertaken by the caseworkers is conducted in the community and having a new reliable vehicle will improve accessibility, transportation and supporting families.
