As we finish up programs responding to the far-reaching impacts of the 2019–20 bushfire season, we’d like to thank our partners Creative Victoria, Emergency Recovery Victoria and the Victorian Department of Health and communities in the northeast and Gippsland regions of Victoria who have worked with RAV to promote health and wellbeing, community inclusion, social connectedness and community resilience since the fires.
With their help we have been able to facilitate a creative recovery small grant program, training retreats, projects, workshops and a local creative network is now in place as a legacy of this work.
Find out more about these two creative recovery programs below.
And finally, huge thanks to our Community Engagement Manager for these projects who made it all happen – Kellie Sutherland.
