Andrea Dawkins MP | Greens Education spokesperson
The announcement today, from the Minister of Education, that there will be additional funding for increased staffing levels at Tasmania's Child and Family Centres is welcomed.
The success of the centres is a testimony to the commitment from the staff and volunteers, which have made the Child and Family Centre's the centre of family and community life in the areas fortunate enough to have them.
We urge the government to continue to assess further opportunities to open Child and Family Centre's beyond the twelve now operating in Tasmania.
