Community Support Service
What is it?
Community Support Service is funded by the Department of Communities, Housing and Digital Economy to reduce social isolation of any aged Granite Belt resident and build community capacity by:
- Linking people with formal and informal supports eg. events, activities, support services, information, advice, advocacy, and referral etc
- Creating social connections and inclusion by a diverse range of methodologies
- Integrating local community action via community engagement or community development where GBNC either leads or contributes to projects that are for the benefit of the whole community or a specific group depending on the issue identified.
Who?
Any member or group of the Granite Belt community.
How does it work?
Our Community Support Officer is an experienced staff member who will gather some basic information, assist an individual with their immediate needs, and if required, refer you to the appropriate person for additional support.
If working with a group within the community or working to develop a new service/program the Community Support Officer will manage this demand via prioritisation.
