SRL-Resources (SRL-R), is a support organisation for those who by choice or necessity will represent themselves in either the Family Court of Australia or the Federal Magistrates Court in Children's matters.

We provide resources, support activities, services and the skills and knowledge needed for SRL's to better navigate the Courts by understanding the processes involved and what is required to better manage and present their case.

SRL-R is a single purpose organisation - to assist people involved in children's issues navigate the Family Courts. SRL-R also assists those that may be minimising their costs by using unbundled legal services. We are non political and non gender. We do not provide counselling or legal advice or provide support with property matters or CSA applications.

The SRL's have created this great quiz to test your knowledge.

There's got to be something more than this! say men

Bernard Carroll has spent more than 30 years travelling around rural Australia talking to groups of men about their health - conversations that often end up focusing on relationships. He reports of men bewildered to find themselves in marriages where they never get it right, or get any thanks for what they do. A typical lament to Carroll: ''Why in the f— am I doing all this when I don't get given the time of day?'' Their ''problem which has no name'' - marital discon...
