Uniting Families Report 2024
Author/s
Y Naidoo, M Blaxland, M Wong, I Katz
Abstract
In this first year, the Uniting Families Report has uncovered a richness in family types that are raising children and young people. The Uniting Families Report highlights the many variations in experiences of these families in relation to health, finances, housing, education and community.
The implication of painting this complete picture of family diversity and how they live their lives in our community is clear. Where policymakers and practitioners fail to design systems, laws and services without the full range of family experiences in mind, some individuals won’t get the support they need to thrive.
It is our ambition that the Uniting Families Report will form the basis for 10 years of research and insights into family life that can help bridge that gap.
