We’re delivering 4 presentations at the FRSA National Conference 2025, with our colleagues from across the Relationships Australia (RA) federation to present on 7 additional topics.

A large room full of people listening to someone talking.

We had many wonderful conversations at the 2024 conference and are excited to be back and engaging with the sector around this year’s theme ‘Safe, Strong and Thriving’.

If you’re attending the conference, we hope to see you at one, two, or all our sessions.
