Contact a Community Connector Hub |
The COVID-19 crisis has hit many people in our community hard, and figuring out what kind of support is out there, and how to access it, can be pretty daunting.
That’s why Council has established three Community Connector Hubs across our City—in Kurunjang, Aintree and Caroline Springs—to help residents understand the types of support available to them, offer guidance on how to access services, and help everyone stay connected, healthy and informed.
If you’re looking for assistance with accessing food relief and care packages, financial or mental health counselling, job readiness, or social connection and online learning activities, but don’t know where to begin, our Community Connector Hubs are a great place to start. Visit our website to find your closest hub.
