The final meeting for 2023 of the Central Coast Aboriginal Interagency Network (CCAIN) was hosted by Tuggerah Lakes Police District at Wyong Police Station on Thursday, November 23.
The CCAIN provides a forum to share information, strategies and programs, that empower the Aboriginal community to fully access all available services, programs, facilities and to achieve specific service provision which is culturally appropriate.
CCAIN members comprise Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal government and non-government service providers, workers and community members, committed to sharing information to improve access to services and outcomes for the Aboriginal community.
More than 30 people attended last Thursday’s meeting.
Sergeant Jerrod Luck of the Tuggerah Lakes Domestic Violence Team gave a presentation on the Coercive Control legislation that comes into effect mid 2024, which generated a lot of discussion and questions.
The next CCAIN meeting will be held in February, 2024.
