The Multiple Birth Association for Western Australia (MBAWA) has been supporting families of multiples for more than 50 years. Our journey began in May 1974, when Connie Roepen founded the Twins Plus Club of WA, a small group of mothers coming together to share experiences, exchange knowledge, and provide companionship in the unique world of raising multiples.

As our community grew, so did our organisation. The Twins Plus Club of WA became the Perth and Districts Multiple Birth Association, and today we proudly operate as the Multiple Birth Association for Western Australia (MBAWA).

Over the decades, much has changed. Printed newsletters have transformed into electronic updates, and families now benefit from instant access to information and online support networks. Yet despite these changes, our mission remains the same: to connect, support, and empower families of multiples.

Today, MBAWA continues to provide a welcoming community, both in person and online, where parents and caregivers can access resources, share their experiences, and build meaningful connections with others who truly understand the joys and challenges of raising multiples. We offer
a range of services, including parenting workshops, social events, and support opportunities, all designed to help families of twins, triplets, and higher-order multiples feel informed, supported, and connected.
