2021 Allevia Annual Report

“
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Philip
and the Board, for inviting me to join the Allevia team
in October 2020. I extend that thanks to my peers,
managers, and the frontline teams who have supported
my transition into Allevia this year.
To the wider Allevia community and families, I have
met and gotten to know many of you this year, and I
thank you for the privilege of being able to serve in this
role moving forward. Please feel free to reach out to
me if there is anything you need or feedback you wish
to provide, I’m always looking at how we can improve
Allevia going forward.
centre-based services, weekend
Teen time activities, on-demand and
one-off supports, evening interestbased
activities, vocational and
recreational programs for youth and
much more.
Support Coordination: It has been
exciting to watch the Support
C o o r d i n a t i o n team grow throughout
2020/1 under the stewardship of Gania
Mansour. We have increased our service
coverage and expanded the team this
year. The regular meetings with the team
are always heartening as they now support
more than 300 NDIS participants and
always have exciting success stories to
tell. Although the team of four specialists
is not large, our reach serves to give
us important insight into how best to
work with the NDIA and how to support
participants and their informal supports to
achieve the best possible outcome from
their plan reviews. The team have received
amazing personal feedback from families
about the positive impact the team is
having on improving their quality of life
and those around them. The whole team
deserves to be congratulated on their
hard work.
