About Australian Institute of Family Studies (AIFS)
The Australian Institute of Family Studies (AIFS) is the Australian Government’s key research agency in family wellbeing.
Our role is to conduct high quality, impartial research into the key trends and emerging issues affecting Australian families, to inform government policy and programs and promote evidence-based practice in the family service sector.
Our position at the intersection of government, academia and the child and family services sector means our research has real-world impact – supporting policy makers and practitioners to target and shape interventions to address the diverse needs of Australian families.
We aim to explore the ‘what’, discover the ‘why’, and identify the ‘so what’ to help improve outcomes for children, families and their communities.
