Overview

The Australian Government is inviting applications via a closed non-competitive process to deliver services under the Families and Communities Program/Strong and Resilient Communities/Community Resilience Grants in Kununurra, Western Australia from 2018-19 to 2020-21. Funding will be offered to one organisation as a result of this process.

The activities that will be funded under this grant include: engaging a youth facilitator to coordinate project partners, stakeholders and service delivery providing support services and diversionary activities providing cultural awareness and engagement activities working collaboratively with a range of local stakeholders, including the District Leadership Group’s children and young people working group.
