About Us
Client referrals (including self referrals) come from a range of sources and
may be for individual client work or family work. The agency has also provided
for a programme for children in the past.
ACROSS also has a tradition of providing a foster care service
and recruits and trains caregivers to provide placements for children unable
to live with their family; placements may be for respite, short term and/ or
long term care.
Traditionally ACROSS has also been able to rely on a small
group of volunteers who have provided various support to ACROSS clients. This
support has included providing temporary after school care, volunteer drivers
who have assisted transporting children, emergency respite care for children
who need to be out of the care of their families and in some situations home
help.
