NURTURE: Young family support:
Temcare loves sport! We see sport, and involvement in local sporting teams, such as footy, basketball, netball, soccer, hockey, as being of immense benefit to young people.
It provides community, friendship, fitness, fun, fresh air, role models and social engagement, among many other benefits.
For single parent families, grandparent led families, families with a parent in prison, familes in health distress such as a cancer crisis or other such situations.
PLAY SPORT: Join a team and change your life.
For over two decades Temcare has run its annual Family Camp. This provides an opportunity for the families in Temcare’s programs to have a free holiday weekend, make new friendships and further develop old ones.
Separate to our own annual camp, Temcare also provide free school holiday camps at campsites in Victoria for approved families and children from its various programs.
