National Families Week 2023 – Living Real, Dreaming Big.
Each year, over a hundred thousand people and hundreds of organisations celebrate National Families Week (15-21 May) – Australia’s annual celebration of families.
The aim of National Families Week is to celebrate the vital role that families play in Australian society. National Families Week is a time to celebrate with your family, make contact with your extended family and friends, and share in the enjoyment of family activities within the wider community. It is a time to celebrate the meaning of family and to make the most of family life – no matter what form your family takes.
Families Australia is coordinating the 2023 National Families Week celebrations across the country to coincide with the United Nations International Day of Families.
National Families Week 2023 celebrates families in all their diversity and promotes the capacities and resilience of families in creating strong, safe and connected communities.
There are National Families Week events being held all around South Australia:
National Families Week@HOME
In response to the COVID-19 situation many organisations and families celebrated National Families Week at home in 2021 and 2022. While we continue to live with COVID, the need to support and develop resilience in families and communities is more important than ever. They encourage us all to continue to support each other, and provide care for those in the broader community. It is always a time to show kindness, and help protect the health and wellbeing of everyone in the community.
