FedCare community services

Find out how we support the Ballarat community through school programs, workshops and partnerships with local organisations.

We deliver a range of workshops and group programs to support wellbeing across Ballarat. These sessions offer practical support and a welcoming space to explore topics such as parenting and managing mental health.

Group programs and workshops

Our school outreach program works alongside primary and secondary schools across Victoria to make psychological support accessible for children and young people, right where they learn. 

Our provisional psychologists, guided by experienced registered psychologists, provide assessments and interventions tailored to each student’s developmental, cultural and individual needs.
By partnering with schools, we help reduce barriers to care and support students’ wellbeing, learning and participation. 

We welcome expressions of interest from new schools. Please contact us at psychology.services@federation.edu.au.

Sons and Daughters of the West is a wellbeing program run by the Western Bulldogs Community Foundation with Federation University and Victoria University. Over ten weekly sessions, men and women take part in group activities that combine wellbeing presentations with gentle exercise. Provisional psychologists help deliver the program, offering psycho‑education and support to participants who may need extra help.
