BUSHkids is a non-Government, not-for-profit organisation which works within local communities to support the development of children by increasing community capacity through education, prevention and early intervention programs.
Our priority is always the health and safety of children, their families and our staff, and more so given the current COVID-19 situation. There has been a shift to provide our services to children and families in more innovative ways.
