Through our Support Services, we have the potential to make a real and positive change in the community. This is one of our key areas of focus here at Our Future Shoalhaven, and a source of much success for our Non-Profit Organization. Get in touch with us today and see how you can lend a helping hand with this program.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
We see every challenge as an opportunity, and this initiative helps us ensure that our partners are better prepared to manage the unique situations they find themselves in. We are invested in an innovative approach that empowers our community and delivers the support they need, when they need it.
EDUCATION & OUTREACH
Most of our efforts pertaining to this program involve studying new approaches and developing innovative ways to implement them. We evaluate our success in this field by gathering qualitative and quantitative data, and using that information to measure shifts and changes from our baseline measurements.
