Whittlesea Community Connections has been an integral part of the community for more than 40 years. Created by the community to support local people, we have been providing vital services for disadvantaged people and emerging communities since 1973.
We are a place-based organisation and we prioritise fostering real and direct relationships within our community in order to best understand community needs, provide an opportunity for the community to have a say about issues of importance to them and for us to remain accountable to the community. In this way, ours is a bottom up, outward looking community development approach.
