Boarding Away from Home Allowance (BAHA)

Isolated Children's Parent's Association

ICPA advocates for families educating children from early childhood through to tertiary. 

Children may be educated in small rural schools, by distance education, attend boarding schools or school term hostels and sometimes have access to early childhood services. 

Tertiary students, whether they are attending university or training for a trade, whose family home is in rural and remote Australia frequently must live away from home to access further education.

We encourage all parents of rural students to become a member of the ICPA.
