Support for those affected by bushfire
The program provides non-clinical, community-based support focusing primarily on provision to bushfire-affected communities of Wollondilly and Wingecarribee LGAs; and Camden LGA and the suburb of Horsley Park (Fairfield LGA) as required. The approach should align with the needs and recommendations determined by the findings from the Community Wellbeing and Participation Needs Assessment Report. The Service Provider Organisation works in collaboration with key partner organisations, local community, and frontline workers (e.g. NSW Rural Fire Service) to improve the mental health, wellbeing, connectedness, and resilience of these communities.
