<strong>Lifeline</strong> <strong>Darling</strong> <strong>Downs</strong> & South West Queensland Ltd <strong>2012</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong><br />

Attendance of professional development opportunities outside work hours, which<br />

interfere with family commitments.<br />

Future directions<br />

We are in talks with the Chinchilla Family Support Service to perhaps locate ourselves<br />

from there so that we can network effectively with their clientele and set up groups to<br />

meet gaps in that area.<br />

Continue to work within these communities with action groups for sustainable<br />

community development. (e.g. Surat Basin Workforce Action Group)<br />

Continue to identify the community needs/barriers and evolve the program to meet<br />

those needs.<br />

In particular, we are looking at Sept 3 rd or 4 th to run a Tree of Life workshop in<br />

Chinchilla to equip workers in that area with better resilience skills.<br />

Renee and Gayle are having talks with support workers in Tara with a view to setting<br />

up groups in the Tara Neighbourhood Centre in the near future. Our first meeting is<br />

planned for August 7 th .<br />

<br />

<br />

Julie is looking at running information events at the local high schools, the Myall<br />

Centre and perhaps some in conjunction with the Chinchilla FSS.<br />
