Aboriginal Best Start are in place to ensure that local Aboriginal communities and organisations are given every possible opportunity to support positive outcomes for their children and families collaboratively, while promoting a strong emphasis on prevention and early intervention,.
Based on formal partnerships of local agencies and service providers to improve the outcomes for children at a localised, targeted level to find solutions to problems faced by families in our area. This approach has been shown to be extremely effective with efforts being focused on boosting children’s participation in the programs we know have the best results for setting them up for success, such as kindergarten and maternal and child health (MCH) services. The program also puts in place prevention strategies, such as providing referral pathways when targeted supports are required.
