School and Year Start-up Payment – Work and Income
We’re emailing carers to let them know. Please help by sharing the word about this with the carers of children who you’re working with.
Extraordinary Care Fund
This is another payment which is available to help carers with costs for the children they care for. This fund helps with extra costs if a child they care for is showing promise, or needs extra support, in a particular area. Carers could get up to $2,000 for each child. You can find more info on our website.
