Centacare NENW's executive manager for family well-being programs Fallon Roberts said the event was a way for families to have fun together while also picking up valuable information to help their situation.
"The Our Children, Our Choice program gives families who are going through a separation, who are affected by family violence and who identify as Aboriginal or [culturally or linguistically diverse], access to solicitors and mediators to assist them in sorting out arrangements for the kids," Mrs Roberts said.
"There will also be information on other Centacare services available on the day, including other mediation programs, parenting programs and children's programs."
