Child and Family Hubs are gaining momentum around Australia with models being developed that aim to integrate variations of health, social care and support, and education.
These hubs aim to promote equitable service access and supports for children and families. In this paper we explore what is meant by a child and family hub and identify core components that underpin the delivery of these hubs that have emerged from Australian and international research.
This paper also introduces the newly established National Child and Family Hubs Network, which creates an opportunity for collaborative learning and sustainable and effective child and family hubs practice.
