East Gippsland Drug And Alcohol Prevention Alliance (East Gippsland PCP)
From its inception in January 2015, the work of the East Gippsland Ice Prevention Working Group (now known as the Drug and Alcohol Prevention Alliance) has reflected the needs of the local community. In response to community concerns about the use of crystal methamphetamine, the group focussed on providing accurate information about use of the drug across East Gippsland. As a result of these information sessions, a group of committed community champions were identified to be involved in designing local solutions to local problems.
Strengthening the Alcohol and Other Drug Service System in the East to Improve Client Experiences (Inner East PCP)
While Alcohol and Other Drugs (AOD) agencies in the east are providing a number of high quality treatment services, opportunities for improvements were identified by the partnership. Across the region, inconsistencies exist in both service demand and waiting times. Factors identified as contributing to this inconsistency include the ineffective transfer and sharing of client information, limited referrals between services, and the impact of systematic changes due to re-commissioning and reform. The Inner East Primary Care Partnership (IE PCP) was funded to work with AOD services in Inner and Outer Eastern Melbourne to improve the AOD service system.
Glenelg SAVES Consortium - Final Report: Executive Summary
The Glenelg SAVES project targeted low‐income households who receive Home and Community Care (HACC) services in the Glenelg Shire In South‐West Victoria, including elderly residents and people with a disability. The project focused on increasing the capacity and knowledge of the Glenelg HACC staff through an innovative participatory approach, which sought to engage staff in the project by providing home energy efficiency training.
Building Cultural Security In The Workplace (INW PCP)
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people working in mainstream organisations report that they are still regularly exposed to racism in the workplace. Inner North West Primary Care Partnership (INW PCP) identified that one-off cultural awareness training and other actions addressing individual employee behaviours and attitudes cannot alone address the systemic nature of this issue. Between 2012-2016 INWPCP supported partner organisations to embed cultural responsiveness practices and address barriers to improving health outcomes for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Incept 2.0 Shared Measurement and Evaluation in PVAW (INW PCP)
The Inner North West Collaborative Evaluation Project (INCEPT) began in 2014 as a partnership between INW PCP and the University of Melbourne. Informed by elements of a collective impact framework, its primary focus was to develop a joint framework for agencies to define and monitor common indicators and progress measures in Prevention of Violence Against Women (PVAW) work. INCEPT 2.0, an online, interactive collective evaluation resource was developed which provides consistent measures for shared data collection in preventing family violence and all forms of violence against women, and gender equity (GE).
