Making a difference in a different way...

Last Friday I had the opportunity to attend a meeting looking to help inform the policy on Community Care Workers from the Children's Sector perspective. A small group of people from different areas of the sector spent the day looking at the draft policy, alternative models and a way forward in terms of addressing the issues that these crucial workers face. What a privilege to be a part of making a difference for these amazing people who consistently make a difference in the lives of many in the most rural communities without much recognition or compensation. I know these processes take a long time but I once again have some hope that we can make a difference in this way....we just need to persevere.
