What do Indigenous Professional Support Units do?

Indigenous Professional Support Unit (IPSU) NSW and ACT, is a program managed by Lady Gowrie Child Centre, Sydney and funded by the Australian Government through the Inclusion and Professional Support Program (IPSP).

IPSUs provide professional development and support to eligible Indigenous child care services. IPSUs also work with the Professional Support Co-ordinators and Inclusion Support Agencies to respond to current and emerging needs

IPSUs perform the same role as Professional Support Co-ordinators except they work with Australian Government funded Indigenous-run child care services.

They also help Professional Support Co-ordinators to support child care services that employ Indigenous staff and/or care for Indigenous children.
