The Grit and Resilience Program (Social Inclusion Action Groups – SIAG), is funded through the Victorian State Government, based on recommendation 15 of the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System.
Taking the learnings from the successfully run initial four-year Grit and Resilience Program, the evolved Grit and Resilience Program brings together community and organisations to:
- identify local needs, existing initiatives and gaps related to social connection and social inclusion in the local community
- test and develop a range of funded initiatives that support community participation, inclusion, and connection.
