Kookaburra Kids is now in Townsville
The Kookaburra Kids Program was launched in Townsville today. The program provides free recreational, educational camps and other activities for children aged 8-18years who have a parent with a mental illness as a result of their military service. Kookaburra Kids gives kids a break in a fun, positive and safe environment and provides an opportunity for them to meet other kids in similar families and develop new friendships.
