(a) & (b) The Men's Resource Service provides resources to services to meet the needs of men. This is a statewide service and will include a satellite service located in the North West. The service is funded for $662,000 over four years.
Two Practical In Home Support Services for Aboriginal Families will each receive funding of $150,000 per annum for four years. One service will be in the North of the state and one in the metropolitan area. I hope to announce locations in the near future.
