Access System Redesign Discussion Paper: have your say
Moving the system from crisis to early help: connecting children, young people and families to the right support at the right time
For vulnerable children, young people and families, timely access to services and support is essential to address child wellbeing or safety concerns. The system needs to give people a pathway to early support when they need it, both early in life and early in need, and must intervene to protect children identified to be at risk of significant harm.
This discussion paper is the start of a new vision for the Access System. We know the status quo is not an option; we know we can achieve better outcomes for vulnerable children, young people and families. Recognising the significant expertise and knowledge across the human services sector, we will undertake the next phases of detailed design in genuine partnership.
Have your say
This collaborative consultation process over the following months begins with this discussion paper. We seek comments, feedback and ideas relevant to the reform directions outlined in the paper. We’re particularly interested in hearing about successful models, innovations or practices that have been or are currently being considered or implemented in NSW or in other jurisdictions.
The discussion questions are designed to encourage thoughts, perspectives and ideas about the Access System. You may wish to comment on matters of interest only or on all questions raised.

Dementia Friends Training - Nowra
05/03/2019
An estimated 436,000 Australians are living with dementia. It impacts the individual living with the condition as well as their loved ones who often provide the support and care.
People living with dementia can find it challenging to participate actively in the community due, in part, to a lack knowledge or understanding of the condition and how it can impact people.
Join Chris Racar, Policy & Project Officer, Aged Services from Community Industry Group as she delivers Dementia Australia 'Dementia Friends' program, and in doing so, outlines individual actions you can undertake to support people with dementia to remain included, accepted and connected with their community.
We will also discuss how organisations can become 'Dementia Friendly' and what resources are available in developing a 'Dementia Friendly Action Plan' for organisations.
