ABSTRACT

In the field of community development there are a number of funding models. Communities that have identified their common needs and are working towards ameliorating may seek resources within (self-funded), raise resources outside their community (donation seeking), or depend on and utilise government funding (state funded). The ‘South West Brisbane Disability Network' (SWBDN) has been established as an unregistered network of service and provides a broad field of disabilities, to address community interest and advocacy options to improve quality of service provision. This paper presents the common objectives for which the Network was created and the process through which a number of successful outcomes were negotiated.
