The SSRG provides opportunities for services who work with the HACC target group, to come together to work collaboratively on joint initiatives and to share information and resources that ultimately improve services to consumers. The project is directed by its members, through the Steering Committee and workgroups. Managers and Executive Managers from across the sector, nominate to stand for the Steering Committee every 2 years or as positions become vacant. They meet at least bi-monthly and discuss emerging issues across the sector and monitor and support workgroup projects. Workgroups are open to membership from organisations who provide services to or engage with the HACC target group. They are supported by the Project Officer to develop and deliver collaborative projects and to network and share information. There is a reasonable expectation that members contribute to discussions and projects and regularly attend meetings. Workgroups are valid for the life of the project. Upon completion they can then either disband or identify a new project. Current workgroups are: Carer Issues - Dementia, with new workgroups Social Inclusion and CALD due to start in the coming months. Please register your interest in these workgroups by email to the Project Officer at info@ssrg.org.au If you are not yet a member but are interested in becoming involved you can view the information on the first page of each workgroup to see when they meet and what their project is. If you'd like to attend the next meeting, you can apply for that group by 'creating an account' or amending your current account details. You will then receive meeting reminders, agendas and minutes relating to that workgroup. Otherwise just call the Project Officer for more information on 8384 0758.
