Funding Reform Program
“Where the rubber hits the blue sky”
WACOSS has established a new funding and contracting program which will work in conjunction with all stakeholders to assist community service organisations with the new Delivering Community Services in Partnership Policy (DCSP Policy). We want to make available a sector gateway for easy to understand information, practical tools and useful resources.
The WACOSS team will make available a range of new and exciting activities across the next six months including workshops, and one-on-one support for small and medium sized organisations in metropolitan and regional areas.
Our sectors services will have to apply new policies and practices, be aware of the implications of the new ideas and shift into a new way of operating. WACOSS is here to help you do this!
The main target areas are to support the NFP sector to:
• Ensure they have the skills, knowledge and tools to respond to the new DCSP Policy requirements;
• Develop their organisational skills in responding effectively to tender requests;
• Develop quality internal management and service sustainability systems; and
• Deliver outcome focused service agreements.
We recognise there is a lot going on for community service organisations in dealing with the funding and other reforms in the DCSP policy. If any point you are unsure as to whom you may need to be speaking to, feel free to contact us and we can help you navigate your way.
