Strong social connections can improve quality of life and provide better health outcomes.
Community Connections supports vulnerable people, who are not eligible for mainstream programs such as NDIS and My Aged Care, to be more involved in their community and to connect to support networks and services. It's a short-term (up to 12 weeks) support program delivered through a statewide network of partners that helps to strengthen connections to communities, social networks, and services.
The Community Passenger Network is an enabling service that works alongside Community Connections that helps those who can’t access traditional transports (public, private or rented) to visit services, shopping centres, community facilities and to connect socially with their community.
