DCYJMA awarded a contract to Kummara Limited for the provision of specialised services and support, including 142 Kinship and Foster care places for children and young people with moderate to high support needs.

The contract includes flexible support funding of $142,000 per annum to assist carers in meeting care needs, maintaining placement stability, and supporting young people's access to in-home support and transport to school, community, and therapeutic services.

Service providers are required to inform carers of the Carer Connect app and assist with onboarding.

The contract value is $4,425,666, procured through a limited process.
