AHVISE is an educational support program (for Aussie farming kids) consisting of volunteer tutors (usually retired) who want to make a difference by helping Australian farming families. The volunteers can provide the tutoring in person on the family’s property OR they can provide the tutoring online (eg. Skype).

This list1 of support services is not exhaustive. Familiarise yourself with local, state, and national support services, and have literature prepared where possible in case it needed. Please note that families may not be ready to accept information upon first offering. Let them know you will keep it with you in case they change their minds.
