Senator Doug Cameron opened the new Family Relationship Centre (FRC) in Tamworth on Wed. 8th April.
The Federal Government has established 65 FRC’s throughout Australia with the aim of ‘helping families to build better relationships.'
The $5m tender to operate the Tamworth centre was awarded to a consortium made up of three local agencies, the Anglican Counselling Service, Centacare New England North West and the Tamworth Family Support Service.
The Centres are designed to serve as a ‘one stop shop’ for people throughout the region, seeking information or assistance for any relationship issues, from strengthening family relationships through to assisting families through separation.
The Tamworth Centre can be contacted by phoning 6762 8669 while the number to contact the Family Relationships Advice Line is 1800 050 321.
