The Nillumbik Health and Wellbeing Profile - Families 2009 identifies and describes the factors that may place a family, with a child or children aged prenatal to eight years of age and residing in the Shire of Nillumbik, at risk of disadvantage. Families may be placed at risk of experiencing disadvantage through a range of factors, including poor access to services, stress, fatigue, lack of time to spend together or extended family not living in the same area.

This project was commissioned through the Nillumbik Best Start Partnership and aims to strengthen the local capacity of parents, families and early years services to better provide for the needs of all young children and their families. You can download a copy of the full Profile or by particular sections as listed below.
