Advocacy plays a vital role in influencing and changing policy and systems to better support people and improve social issues.

NCOSS works to be a conduit for the community services sector and advocate on the sector’s behalf to policy-makers, but we also seek to support and empower the sector to engage in its own advocacy.

The community services sector is diverse, strong and carries a wealth of expertise. The sector’s experiences in working on the ground with communities can contribute enormous value to advocacy.

Below is a collection of information about ongoing advocacy, as well as resources and tools organisations can use to build knowledge and capacity around conducting their own advocacy.
