The social service sector’s strength lies in its diversity and deep-on-the-ground knowledge. With advocacy campaigns, we can help drive change.
We work with the community service sector by advocating to policymakers. Here is some information about our online advocacy at NCOSS.
We’ve also included some of the tools and resources to help you grow advocacy in your organisation.
End Child Poverty
The End Child Poverty campaign calls for legislation to measure, report, and end child poverty in Australia.
Together we will work for the Federal Parliament to enact legislation to end child poverty by 2030. The legislation would include measurable targets and actions to achieve this goal, acknowledging the inherent right of every child to live a life free from deprivation and hardship.
Fair Treatment
We all want to live in a world where everyone is treated with dignity and respect, including people who use drugs. NCOSS is proud to support the ‘Fair Treatment’ campaign, formed by the Uniting Church NSW/ACT and Uniting in 2018 with now more than 70 partner organisations.
Fair Treatment campaigns for increased access to treatment services, especially in rural and regional areas, and a compassionate, health and wellbeing-based response to personal drug possession.
