Program Update May 2023
From 4 May 2023, if you are a ParentsNext participant you will remain in the program and can still choose to be referred to activities and meet with your provider, but will not receive a financial penalty or suspension if you miss an activity or appointment.
You will continue to have the same access to help and support with ParentsNext and your provider can continue to help you reach your education or employment goals including helping you find work if you are ready.
