Disability Services customised training
The customised training ‘Creating Community Partnerships’ was developed and delivered to over 70 staff members at the Disability Services Commission in August 2009. Four sessions ran over two weeks exploring how to develop and sustain positive and productive partnerships, strategies to motivate staff, and practical sessions on how to identify and attract potential community partners.
Consultancies
City of Stirling consultation
From November 2009 to February 2010, CAN WA facilitated stakeholder workshops to ensure that the initiatives, projects and programs that are delivered by the new Family Services team at the City of Stirling are targeted in a way that meets that community’s needs and the City’s direction.

Seven consultation sessions were undertaken with stakeholders such as primary and high school students, parents, the City of Stirling staff, service providers and Aboriginal people. We combined traditional and creative engagement techniques that effectively elicit the thoughts and feelings of the diverse range of people consulted.
