Service Description:

Aboriginal Family Support Services can support Aboriginal people and families impacted by cancer by helping reduce the pressures that come with diagnosis and treatment. This includes emergency relief such as food vouchers, transport and housing-related support pathways. AFSS also provides culturally grounded family support, counselling-style services, and coordination with other services across health, housing and community systems, helping families remain connected, supported and able to navigate complex health systems.
