An interagency is a loose network of workers in community organisations and perhaps workers in government departments. Interagencies are a meeting place to exchange information, and a forum for collective lobbying.
Interagencies, Networks and Forums in the Illawarra lists details of local community-based networks. If the details of your interagency are not up to date, please contact the Illawarra Forum Inc.
Why do we have interagencies? On the subject of interagencies, community workers have a vast range of responses ranging from dissatisfaction or 'burn-out' to optimistic expectations of collective lobbying. This paper puts together opinion collected in an email survey in May 2005.
