We are very excited to announce the next stage of the QCOSS Movement for change – a series of Changing Lives, Changing Communities events in 13 locations across Queensland. These events will build on the knowledge gained and actions developed on the second day of the QCOSS State Conference - Movement for change that was held in Brisbane in May.
Notice is given that the Queensland Council of Social Service Ltd (QCOSS) Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held at 7.30am on the Tuesday 6 November 2018 at Souths Leagues Club, Davies Park, 120 Jane Street, West End.
Congratulations to Kit Ison, who was recently appointed on the Skilling Queenslanders for Work (SQW) Regional Priority Jobs Committee.
QCOSS has reiterated our in principle support for the introduction of a mandatory portable long service leave scheme for workers employed (by for- profit and not-for-profit organisations) in the social and community services sector including disability across Queensland in a joint response by several of the community service peaks.
Events
The first face-to-face opportunity for the Queensland Place-based Community of Practice will take place as part of ChangeFest 2018. It is a FREE event, with breakfast.
QCOSS is teaming up with the campaign for A Human Rights Act for Queensland to offer an event discussing where our Human Rights Act is, what it might contain, how it will be of benefit and how the push for this important reform can be sustained.
What will a Human Rights Act for Queensland mean for the community sector?
