Shared Responsibility Agreements

Shared Responsibility Agreement

The Wilora community wants to raise health standards in the area and give children a better education.

The community is served by a health clinic, a women’s centre and a primary school that has limited sporting facilities.

The SRA will provide a meeting place and organised activities for the community to improve their health and education.

Wilora residents have resolved to clean up the whole community, prepare the site for the meeting place and provide labour for the construction.

Community volunteers will establish a school lunch program, paint a mural at the school and clean up the women’s centre, which will become a venue for the community band to provide music tuition and an after-school program.

The Wilora school will also provide a venue for community and school activities and maintain records of students’ participation and attendance.

The Australian Government will fund the new meeting place, and provide equipment and materials to set up programs to improve community health and education.
