Biripi Aboriginal Children’s Services has two services for children and young persons living in out of home care situations. One of these services is located in Taree (BACS) and the other is located in Inverell (Walanbaa Gaayili).
Biripi Aboriginal Children’s Service and Walanbaa Gaayili Out of Home Care Service provides Foster Care Support Services to foster and kinship/relative carers and is an inclusive not-for-profit organisation that provides a high quality fostering service that meets the range of needs of children and young people in out-of-home care. BACS is focussed on providing foster care to Aboriginal children and young people and the preference is that they be placed in or on country with Aboriginal foster and kinship carers.
