Supporting Regional Australians We support 56,000 people across Australia. More than 22,000 of those people are from regional areas. We KNOW that services in the perinatal space as well as mental health space are stretched, and this is especially so in regional areas. This is why we’re here, meeting people right where they are at, day and night, for free, wherever they are living. We Make A Real Difference, To Real People “This group is important because it offers peer support (emotional, psychological, logistical) at a very vulnerable time in parents' (and babies) lives. It is important because it is a free, inclusive, resource that is accessible to anyone with a phone or library access. It meets otherwise unmet needs of parents around the world who have decided to parent gently and allows them to meet virtually and exchange, learn, grow and be all the more present for their children, even in the face of the physically brutal lack of sleep that may come in these years. It is the ‘village’ of support needed to parent that much better. THANK YOU!!” - Heidi H. The service we provide, the work we do to improve the way society supports families is essential. Please help us expand our services and keep them freely available to all, when they need it most.
