What We Do

Programs & Services

NTP delivers five programs across the Goldfields, providing culturally safe support for Aboriginal women, children and families.

IFSS

Intensive Family Support Services

NTP delivers the Intensive Family Support Service (IFSS) in the Goldfields. This state-wide program supports Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal families experiencing disadvantage, complex challenges and trauma — including intergenerational trauma.

The program provides intensive in-home support, helping families build parenting and living skills to improve wellbeing and safety.

  • Working to keep children safely at home where child safety concerns exist
  • Supporting safe reunification where children are in care
  • Practical parenting education and skill development
  • Focus on daily living, child mental health, education, safety and protective skills

Funded by the Western Australia Department of Communities.

  • Accessible to women and families in the Goldfields
  • Delivered by trusted Aboriginal community members

The program reflects NTP's core belief: when women are strong, families are strong.

  • Leadership and confidence building
  • Community events, activities and peer support
Healing Services

Indigenous Healing Services

NTP has been awarded a $250,000 WA Government grant to develop a Goldfields Indigenous Healing Service (IHS). The IHS model provides services for children and young people impacted by abuse, including child sexual abuse.

The service is informed by traditional and local Aboriginal healing practices, ensuring support is culturally appropriate and community-led.

  • Support for children and young people impacted by trauma and abuse
  • Informed by traditional and local Aboriginal healing practices
  • Community engagement and place-based service design
  • Part of WA Government's commitment to Aboriginal-led child safety services

Supported by a $250,000 grant from the WA Government (October 2025).
