STRONGER COMMUNITIES

My Priorities

Build a pathway to universal access to early childhood learning and care

Better support for our youth mental health

Nationally consistent assessment framework for Family Violence risks

Ban harmful gambling advertising

Broaden success measures beyond economic and support with a Future Generations Commissioner

A compassionate community is a strong and safe community.

In Australia we talk about giving each other a ‘fair go’. But many people in our community do not feel like they belong. Connection and inclusivity are hallmarks of happy communities -  improving community networks helps reduce isolation and exclusion.

Australia has always been a diverse nation and diversity is our strength. We need to go beyond knowing morally that diversity is important. Diversity of background, perspective, age and gender supports community and secures its future growth.
