Official first
Government, regulator and established national-service pathways are clearly distinguished from APN material.
Free Australian public resources
Find the right privacy, safety or support pathway.
This is the public front door: official services, practical guides, community support and APN-built pathways organised so a person can move from confusion to a useful next step without a payment gate.
If you are in immediate danger, call 000. Crisis support: Lifeline 13 11 14. Domestic, family or sexual violence support: 1800RESPECT 1800 737 732.
APN is not an emergency service
Public-interest rules
No login. No payment gate. Official handoffs first on sensitive routes. Payment does not determine inclusion or rank. Every card identifies whether it opens an external service or an APN page, and register publication is not an endorsement.
The live resource feed is currently unavailable; the directory shell remains public.
Guided public register
What is happening?
Pick the closest description or search in your own words. Your choice and search text stay in this open tab, are not added to the page address, and clear when the page is reloaded.
Or browse by category
Where help carries on
A direct hand-off, not a dead end.
The public register is still growing. When a pathway is too thin to be useful, APN points you to established national services instead of padding the result or leaving an empty page.

APN is not an emergency service. External services control their own eligibility, hours and response. Confirm current details on the service's official website.
Continuity rule
When APN cannot continue, the pathway continues.
No empty routes
A thin pathway hands you to suitable national support instead of displaying an empty or padded result.
No forced account
Public resources, search and guided routing work without a login, checkout or member profile.
How resources are handled
Entries are collected from public sources, deduplicated and reviewed for register fit. Source and jurisdiction metadata are still being normalised, so the page requests only a limited public field set and does not present those incomplete fields as proof. Your selected pathway and search words stay in the open tab, are not added to the URL and are not sent to APN by the register controls.

General information only. APN does not guarantee that an external service will accept or resolve a matter, and this directory is not legal, medical, financial or emergency advice. Check critical details with the official service before acting.
