Permanent Care and Adoptive Families (PCAF) is a not-for-profit carer member-based organisation representing families formed by permanent care, kinship care and adoption in Victoria. Established by parents from this community in 2003, we continue to be guided by the lived experience of our members.
We administer the Department of Families, Fairness and Housing (DFFH) Flexible Funding for permanent carers and the Better Futures/Homestretch Programs for young people. We also provide a helpline, peer support and empower members to advocate for their children and themselves. We deliver a strong voice for members, influencing government and sector policy development.
Our programs and practices include a child-centred and family-focused approach to support strong and sustainable permanent care and adoptive families. PCA Families is governed by an elected Board of up to 9 Directors, including the Chair, that holds expertise and leadership to govern the organisation.
PCA Families is seeking to appoint two Directors. The new Directors can have lived experience with a personal and/or family connection to Permanent Care and Adoption or no connection.
