Angela Finch calls on the Government to 'Prioritise all Tasmanians' and back community services

We’re putting a human face to the community services crisis, sharing the lived experiences that show what’s truly at stake for Tasmanians.

This is the first in a series of stories from real people whose lives have been shaped and, in some cases, saved by community services.

Angela Finch is a single mother of three who knows firsthand how timely, well-resourced community services can change the course of a family’s life. Watch Angela’s story (YouTube).

Chronic underfunding, rising costs and workforce burnout are pushing these essential services to breaking point, just as demand continues to grow.

Our industry shows up for Tasmanians every day. Now it’s time for Government to show up and #PrioritiseallTasmanians.
