Blue Mountains Community Care Forum

About the Group

The Blue Mountains Community Care Forum is convened by the Blue Mountains City Council's Aged and Disability Services Development Officer and is predominately attended by organisations both not for profit and profit that provide services and programs to people with a disability, the frail aged, people living with a mental health issue and their carers.

To view the range of services and programs currently available to people in the Blue Mountains, go the the Blue Mountains Community Care Guide 2022, published by the Blue Mountains City Council.

Purpose/Goals

The Blue Mountains Community Care Forum meets to discuss aged and disability care issues for service provision in the Blue Mountains, gaps in service provision and has a key role in advocating to State and Federal Government on issues impacting on the delivery of services to this target group. A key role of the Forum is to support services with changes in the Aged and Disability sector such as the My Aged Care and NDIS reforms. And to promote positive collaboration and capacity building with all services assisting this target group.

Meetings

How often:  The Blue Mountains Community Care Forum meets from 10am to 12pm on the 4th Thursday of each month.

Where:  Mid Mountains Neighbourhood Centre, 9 New Street, Lawson.
