Parents can expect to receive:
- A single telephone number for family services
- Appropriate information and advice over the phone

- Assistance in identifying the needs of you and your children; and support in identifying goals that will meet those needs
- Information about groups that are available for you to attend (for example, young mums, single parents, grandparents and carers, etc).
