About

Join us over breakfast for a panel and discussion one year on from the release of the Commonwealth Government's Not-for-Profit Sector Development Blueprint.

We'll explore what's happening in the social services sector and government, what the blueprint sets out as a vision for our sector and society, and how governments and the sector can work together to bring this vision to life.
