Who are we?
The Perinatal Peer Worker Project is specially designed for young parents in rural and remote Queensland to receive support from other parents who have been ‘in the same boat’ as them. This grant will go directly to having perinatal peer workers facilitate parenting programs, and creating robust training where people can become perinatal peer workers.
