Alongside community organisations, cultural groups help early childhood services to support families from diverse backgrounds. Partnerships with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander organisations ensure guidance on cultural safety as families connect with culture and community (SNAICC, 2019). Refugee support services and multicultural community centres offer aid to newly arrived families in the areas of language, settlement, and cultural orientation (Settlement Council of Australia, 2023).
Professional partnerships with interpreters, bilingual teachers, and culture consultants will best improve communication and meet cultural needs (DEEWR, 2022). Working with health and social service providers knowledgeable of cultural groups enhances the support of children and families with complex needs.
