Department of Social Services |
The Department of Social Services (DSS) has policy responsibility for student payments,
including ABSTUDY, which provide financial assistance to First Nations families and
students to encourage participation and retention in secondary and tertiary education.
Some payments (i.e. Relocation Scholarships and Student Start-up Loans) are subject to
mutual exclusion provisions for some scholarships which are administered by the NIAA
(i.e. Commonwealth Accommodation Costs Scholarship and Commonwealth Education
Costs Scholarship) preventing double payment for the same period.
DSS contributes to the IAS by supporting the development of stronger families and more
resilient communities. This includes supporting First Nations families and communities
to enjoy similar levels of physical emotional and social wellbeing to that enjoyed by other
Australians; supporting families to give children a good start in life; supporting access to
affordable housing; and supporting remote strategic investments and remote housing
strategies.
DSS also contributes to the IAS by supporting eligible First Nations peoples living in nonremote regions with a disability into work.
DSS is responsible for leading the Commonwealth’s implementation of three targets
under the National Agreement on Closing the Gap, Target 9a (housing), Target 12 (outof-home care), Target 13 (family violence); and the cross-cutting outcome for disability.
DSS contributes a range of initiatives and actions toward achieving these targets as set
out in the Commonwealth Closing the Gap Implementation Plan (Implementation Plan)
