About Us
Voice for SONG:
- promotes the recognition of the value, efficiencies and effectiveness of small community organisations (in a climate that values large organisations over small organisations across all sectors)
- actively promotes policies and strategies that support the sustainability and development of small community organisations
- encourages small community organisations to take leadership roles
- connects and develops cooperative and collaborative relationships between small community organisations, medium and large NGOs (non- Government organisations) peaks, government, business and the general community to progress issues for small community organisations.
- is a vehicle for information exchange, discussion, consultation about key policy, program and service delivery issues affecting small community human service organisations
- works with existing lobby groups such as NCOSS to ensure all levels of government are aware of key policy and sector development issues for small community organisations
While Voice for SONG acknowledges that NCOSS and other peaks have always and will continue to represent and advocate for their member organisations, including small community organisations, Voice for SONG aims to have a complementary and non-competitive role with NCOSS and other peaks. Voice for SONG will lobby NCOSS and other peaks to advocate for the benefit of small community organisations.
Voice for SONG is currently a NSW network with secretariat support provided by Western Sydney Community Forum (WSCF) and blog maintained by TRI Community Exchange Inc.
