SFLEX (Stronger Families Learning Exchange) Bulletins
SFLEX (Stronger Families Learning Exchange) Bulletins were produced during the initial phase of the former Stronger Families and Communities Strategy (2000-2004).
During this time the Communities and Families Clearinghouse Australia (CAFCA) was known as the Stronger Families Learning Exchange.
SFLEX Bulletins were used to disseminate information to stakeholders on a range of topics such as action research, evaluation, community development and collaboration.
SFLEX Bulletins are no longer being produced by CAFCA; however, the information provided may be of use to policy-makers, practitioners and researchers working in a field related to the planning, delivery and/or evaluation of child and family services.
