Survey - Sector Financial Sustainability 2024

HAVE YOUR SAY - HELP SHAPE OUR ADVOCACY ON THE SECTOR’S IMMENSE FINANCIAL CHALLENGES

NCOSS is the peak body for the social service sector in NSW. Since the pandemic, we have heard from our members and the wider social services sector that they are increasingly experiencing hardship and complications due to funding issues and increased community needs. We are actively engaging with the NSW Government to bring these issues to their attention and seek action to meet community need and improve engagement with social service organisations.

WHAT and WHY?

We need your help to make sure that we have captured the whole sector's perspective and sure that the message is reaching the decision makers. Please take this 15 minute survey to share your organisation’s experience in managing the funding and service delivery costs in 2023-24. NCOSS will use your responses (deidentified in reports) to advocate for strengthening the sector, including through the Secure Jobs and Funding Certainty initiative, and in its pre-budget submission for 2025-26.

WHO, WHEN and HOW?

The survey is for those in management roles who have knowledge of their organisations’ finances.
