Relationships Australia National Body

Relationships Australia is a leading provider of relationship support services and our aim is to support all Australians to achieve positive and respectful relationships.

Relationships Australia is a network of community based, not-for-profit organisation with no religious affiliations based in each state and territory. Our services are for all members of the community regardless of their religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, lifestyle choice, cultural background or economic circumstances.

With more than 60 years’ experience, Relationships Australia provides confidential relationship support services including counselling and education for individuals, couples and families; family dispute resolution; family violence; personal development; and training for professionals.

Our services are provided by professional trained and highly skilled staff.

In 2008/2009, Relationships Australia's 1,894 staff provided family and community support services to 116,635 clients from over 156 outlets in city, suburban, regional, rural and remote locations across Australia.

In the last financial year, over 60% of our funding came from the Australian Government through the Family Relationship Services Program (FRSP). This funding is supplemented through client fees, our training programs, state and territory government support, sales of publications, sponsorships, donations and other sources.
