Strategic plan to guide support for children up to six years

The three focuses of the plan are supporting parents and caregivers, ensuring services are accessible and building strong connections in the community.

Annual action plans will be developed to implement and measure progress for the long-term outcomes.

In addition to community feedback, the final plan was informed by local data, early years research and relevant state and national frameworks.

Director healthy communities and liveability Briana Baass thanked the community for participating in consultation.

“We want the best outcomes for all children in Greater Shepparton, and we can only achieve that when all stakeholders are included in the process,” Ms Baass said.
