Established in 1877, Berry Street is currently the largest independent child and family welfare organisation
in Victoria.
With more than 340,000 reports of suspected child abuse and neglect across Australia each year Berry Street is sorely needed.
They help children and young people recover from abuse, keep women and their children safe from family violence, and assist struggling mothers and fathers to be the parents they want to be.
Berry Streets focus is:
- The rights of all children to a good childhood; and
- Supporting those children, young people and families with the most complex
issues arising from their personal experiences of abuse, neglect or violence
