The Government has approved a third and final $820,000 round of the Survivor Support and Recognition Fund (SSRF) to support community-led services for survivors of abuse and neglect in care, with applications opening in February 2027. The SSRF, administered by the Department of Internal Affairs, was established in 2025 following recommendations from the Abuse in Care Royal Commission and has previously allocated $4.2 million to 68 organisations for survivor-focused initiatives such as healing, advocacy, and memorial projects. This final funding round aims to help organisations continue their survivor support services while seeking sustainable funding options.
