Reform Consultation

Barbara ShawDepartment of Communities

This forum will provide youth services with an understanding of the state

governments planned outcomes, its future areas of investment to the sector, and

test proposed models for future service delivery. It will be an opportunity to gain a

better understanding of how reforms will impact funded services and the various

services and agencies within our communities.
