About The Community Support Service

What is the service?

The Community Support Service supports Indigenous community members and their families by providing links and referrals to a range of mainstream and Indigenous services which may include welfare and social support, family violence, health (including drug and alcohol services), housing, child care and legal. Develops and fosters relationships with other service providers through promoting access and pathways to their services.

Why is this service being provided?

The Community Support Service aims to build on successful elements of the former CDEP program, by linking Indigenous people and their families to other services and support in their region.

By better linking Indigenous people to community services, the Community Support Service will support social inclusion and community cohesion. The Service will also assist in closing the gap between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians in accessing services and information.

What can you expect from your local service?

The Community Support Service has welcoming offices in Inverell, Moree and Narrabri, where Indigenous people and their families can go for help to find a service to meet personal needs and to access the internet.

Staff have a good knowledge of the range of services available and have developed relationships with these services so that they are able to better assist individuals.
