The Albanese Labor Government will deliver a range of initiatives to demonstrate its commitment to ensure Australia’s 2.65 million carers are recognised for the contribution they make to the community.
In National Carers Week the Government is today announcing:
- It will deliver on a National Carer Strategy, investing $3.8 million through to 2025-26 to develop a coherent national agenda
- Launch the Carer Inclusive Workplace Initiative to ensure carers are better supported to participate in the workforce
- Extend Carer Gateway for two years to ensure carers have access to supports they need, knowing they don’t always seek help when caring for a loved one
