National Members' Forum Role and Function

Family Day Care Australia's National Members' Forum is an advisory body established in 2009.

The aim of the National Members’ Forum is to provide for two way communication between the family day care community and Family Day Care Australia’s Chief Executive Officer, and through that role to the staff and to the Board.

National Members’ Forum representatives provide an important link between Family Day Care Australia and its membership, and help to build positive relationships within the family day care community.

The consultation process assists FDCA in providing advice, lobbying and representation on a national level. It's critical to the successful way in which FDCA represents the family day care community.
