The primary objective of CRF is to firstly provide a safety net for those on low incomes who encounter a financial shock. A financial shock is a sudden, unexpected expense or drop in income that can place pressure on their budget and wellbeing Secondly, is to invest in building local financial resilience to enable individuals and communities to better deal with crises in the long-term, reducing crisis need. Providing timely support so that people can manage pressures, maintain control and avoid being pushed into crisis or prevent crises from escalating The CRF replaces the Household Support Fund (HSF) with the explicit intention of moving from short-term crisis mitigation towards prevention, financial resilience, and reduced reliance on emergency support.
