Advocacy
We advocate State and Federal Government for a more even distribution of facilities, services and funding for not-for-profit support organisations that provide services to vulnerable people.
Through interagency networks, partnerships, community mapping and resident feedback, we develop a picture of current and emerging needs across the City and advocate for innovative solutions to address these needs.
For detailed information on current demographic data, trends and projections for the City, visit the City of Rockingham Community Profile.
Community Support Services mapping was undertaken in 2018 to understand the current services provided across Rockingham as well as service gaps and needs. To request a copy of this report, please contact Community Support Services on 9528 0333 or email customer@rockingham.wa.gov.au
