"The training provided to Korin Korin educators is exceptional, unique within the sector, rigorous and purposeful. Educators are enabled to consider their professional practice, improve their responsiveness to vulnerable children and enhance their engagement and ability to connect with families. This includes a deep understanding of Kids First service philosophy and the referral programs available for children and families within Kids First." Korin Korin Educator
