FORUMS
Open to community at large
All Residents can
be involved
Upcoming meetings and events will be
advised to residents in our inaugural newsletter and website (still under
construction). A Community Forum to meet at least four times a year will be open
for members of the public to attend. The purpose of this Forum is to provide the
Minister with advice on the broad strategic direction of the Redfern-Waterloo
Plan and provides the community with a direct link to the
Minister.
Human Services
Review Update
Two community workshops held on 4
April 2005 identified preferred outcomes community members want from human
services in Redfern and Waterloo.
Around 60 participants identified
outcomes in relation to children and young people, families and community. Some
initial work was also undertaken to identify how such achievements might be
measured. This information has been passed on to the Interim Human Services
Advisory Committee and the cluster groups set up to develop Stage One of the
Human Services Plan.
The cluster groups, consisting of
people responsible for providing services in Redfern-Waterloo, will open to the
public their scheduled meetings for the week comencing 2 May
2005.
Community members who wish to have a
say about solutions that are being developed are encouraged to attend one or
more of the following community workshops:
Tuesday 3 May 2005: Health
services
Wednesday 4 May 2005: Services for
Aboriginal people
Thursday 5 May 2005: Youth
services
Friday 6 May 2005: Services for
families and children
All meetings will be held on level
11, Tower 2, TNT
Towers, 1 Lawson Street,
