In This Section
The Community Development Department program provides a range of services within the community.
Community Safety focuses on enhancing the awareness and capacity of residents, businesses and visitors to act, live and work safely, employing a range of information, education and community development approaches.
Greater Shepparton is currently experiencing an extreme drought that is impacting not only agricultural production, but also extended industries and communities.
Neighbourhood Renewal is a continuing approach that brings together the resources and ideas of residents, government, local communities, businesses and community groups to tackle disadvantage in areas with a high concentration of public housing. Neighbourhood Renewal is being led by the Office of Housing (OoH) in the Department of Human Services as part of the government’s A Fairer Victoria Agenda.
“Communities working together to improve local transport.”
Word and Mouth is a youth-driven and youth-focused organisation in Greater Shepparton. Word and Mouth is designed to provide opportunities for young people to be involved in their community.
