Strong family
The Strong Families Act
The "Strong Families Act" came into force on 1 July 2019. The aim is to strengthen families with low incomes and create fair opportunities for their children to participate in society. To this end, the child supplement was redesigned and education and participation benefits for children and young people were improved.
