Family Pathways Network

The Family Pathways Network is a coordinated network for professionals operating within the Family Law system.

Contacts for the Network are listed in the following files:

The Networks assist member organisations and their staff in making more collaborative referrals and enhancing their understanding of the services for families offered by other Network members.

The Networks hold regular meetings, conferences, forums and training days.

Various products have been developed by the Networks including:

  • calendars of events,
  • an electronic news bulletin,
  • card inserts listing local services and
  • training materials.

Regular contact among members keep organisations connected, up to date with the services each is providing and recent developments, such as changes to the way services are provided.

Network members come from a range of organisations that provide services for separating families, including:

  • practitioners such as counsellors,
  • mediators,
  • legal practitioners specialising in family law,
  • representatives from Family Law Registries,
  • the Child Support Agency and
  • Centrelink.

Network members may include service providers traditionally not seen as part of the Family Law system such as drug and alcohol, mental health and domestic violence practitioners.
