Purpose/Goals
The aims of MMI are as follows:

- MMI will identify service delivery issues, including gaps in services, obstacles and barriers to accessing services, both Government and non-Government. It will also act as an advisory body and will support workers in their work with the target group.
- MMI will advocate for improving and effective service delivery, for additional services and where local, state and national issues affect local multicultural communities.
- MMI will actively promote cultural harmony and productive diversity, engaging the whole community.
