Working together to strengthen safety, wellbeing and connection in Port Augusta and Davenport. Guided by a shared commitment to community-led solutions, this collective effort brings together community, business, government and local leaders to support a stronger, more connected region where people feel safe and valued.
Port Augusta and Davenport Community Safety and Wellbeing Plan
The Port Augusta and Davenport Community Safety and Wellbeing Plan has been designed with local community to help create a safer, stronger and more connected region. The Plan sets out clear actions, timeframes, and funding considerations.
The plan actions focus on:
- community caring
- community safety
- building partnerships to achieve positive outcomes.
To help put the plan into action, the Commonwealth and South Australian Governments committed $12 million in July 2024, across a 3-year period, to support positive change in the region.

This dedicated leadership group includes local representatives from Traditional Owner groups, Aboriginal Community Controlled Organisations, youth, service providers, businesses and is supported by Federal and State government.
