The Federal Government has agreed to a $475 million payout for Robodebt victims - the largest class action in history. If approved, it will benefit hundreds of thousands. Finally, some good news for those affected. abc.net.au/news/2025-09-0…
Our Director of First Nations Policy Lynda Edwards spoke to @JarniBlakkarly from CHOICE about the growing spaces for First Nations financial counsellors and the need to prioritise financial literacy in Closing The Gap. Read the full story: ow.ly/J8cP50Wlpzm
And that's a wrap! Thank you @FCAupdate for having us at at your Shake It Up Conference for 2025 🤗 #FCAConf25 #finance #financial #financetips #financialcounsellingaustralia
We're calling for super funds to end the harm and commit to mandatory customer service standards. ICAN Financial Counsellor Unaisi Buli said super standards that "address cultural barriers, would facilitate easier access for First Nations peoples.” nit.com.au/31-03-2025/171…
Ahead of the federal election, we want to see a commitment to adequate and stable funding for our sector. We'll be releasing more information about our campaign in coming days, so stay tuned. #CantAffordToWait #financialcounselling #federalelection
"This ‘action plan’ has to be backed by teeth. In that way, the (insurance) industry will be forced to change and focus more on the wellbeing of its customers than its corporate bottom line.” @steph_tonkin @insuranceNEWS @FCAupdate insurancenews.com.au/daily/customer…
We're reminding those who may be impacted by Cyclone Alfred, there is free financial counselling available. “Weather disasters can lead to unexpected financial problems,” said Louise Hayes, FCA’s National Coordinator of Disaster Recovery. Media release: financialcounsellingaustralia.org.au/financial-coun…
Big news today. The Federal Government has allocated $44.1 million to the National Debt Helpline and FCA over the next five years.
Big thanks to @SBSNews and dozens of others for broadcasting the NDH details. FCA is encouraging all media to publish the 1800 007 007 number and ndh.org.au in stories about financial hardship. It's vital for the community to know there is free help available.
Spot on
Well said Vicki
We have a new strategic plan which sets out a commitment to four refreshed goals, pictured below. It furthers our efforts to prevent financial harm and address financial hardship across Australia. Read the full strategic plan for more information: ow.ly/vu0u50UfrrG
FCA urges NSW Parliament to address gaps in the state's strata reform bill, to protect homeowners from unnecessary legal action and the risk of losing their homes. More details on our website: ow.ly/4C9o50UaAOt
Some good news for people accessing the National Redress Scheme. From January next year payments will be exempt from means testing and not be considered an asset for the residential aged care subsidy. ministers.dss.gov.au/media-releases…
This is an important statement. Recommended reading for any Australian concerned about what Trump’s re-election means to this country. @realCarrickRyan

If you are struggling with debt and bills you are not alone and there is help available. Go to ndh.org.au for self-help and chat or call 1800 007 007 to speak with a FREE and INDEPENDENT financial counsellor.
The ACCC has accused Optus of predatory sales practices targeting Australians, particlarly First Nations, regional, disabled and low-income consumers. Optus' alleged conduct is disgraceful, and must be punished to the full extent of the law. Urgent telco industry reform is needed…
If we want to close the gap we need to ensure First Nations people are not paying twice as much as others for basic groceries. This Choice article by @Jarni Blakkarly is a must read. ow.ly/EBlz50TWMjB
