Adelaide Family Relationship Centre

We provide family dispute resolution for separating parents.  We draw on decades of experience in supporting families during and after separation and divorce.  Our main purpose is to help separating parents to reach parenting agreements without going to court, to help reduce parental acrimony and conflict and to help parents focus on their children. 

We can also connect you to the right services, support or personal education and skills training about any issue affecting your relationships. This includes mental health problems, gambling, family and domestic violence, relationship problems, and parenting or grand-parenting issues.  We have a wealth of books, pamphlets and resources. 

Whatever the issue or difficulty, you can call to talk to one of our Family Advisors or drop in to see us.

Family dispute resolution

If you are separated or in the process of separating, our family dispute resolution service can help you and your former partner come to an agreement on parenting issues. Family dispute resolution is now compulsory for separating parents before commencing legal proceedings about the care of their children, although there are some exceptions particularly where safety is an issue.  Before proceeding to family dispute resolution, we will meet with you individually to discuss your situation. 

Child Focused Information Sessions

Parents using our family dispute resolution service will also need to attend a Child Focused Information Session (each parent to attend a separate group session).

The Adelaide Family Relationship Centre is managed by Relationships Australia (SA) in partnership with UnitingCare Wesley Adelaide and Centacare.
