Thank you to all who attended the 2008 NAYSS Good Practice Forum, which was held on Thursday 1 and Friday 2 May. The forum enabled opportunities to share good practice, and proved to be a great way for state NAYSS providers to come together and unite under the NAYSS initiative.
A special thank you to the guest speakers - Phil Crane, James Atanasious and Peter Politis - whose involvement strengthened forum discourse; and to the facilitators, services presenters and all participants whose contributions demonstrated to everyone present the amazing work that NAYSS staff carry out across Australia.
The lead provider will be producing a 2008 NAYSS Forum Report which be posted on this website.
I would also like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the passing away of Savanna Holloway. Savanna was a NAYSS worker at Melaleuca Refugee Centre in Darwin; her absence at the forum was notable and she will be sadly missed. Condolences and details of her memorial may be accessed through the Melaleuca Refugee Centre website.
Warm regards,
