OUR VISION
To be a dynamic community force in bringing self-reliance, dignity and well-being to people’s lives.
OUR MISSION
At Gymea Community Aid and Information Service, we are uniquely positioned to build the aspirations of individuals and families to achieve inclusiveness, independence and participation in the community while recognising diversity and desire for well-being.
Our long standing presence in Sutherland Shire draws on both staff and volunteers to provide information and associated support services to the general community, our ageing members and people from culturally diverse backgrounds.
Through social groups, planned programs and activities, we strengthen and promote individual’s self-determination, enriching the broader community.
Strategic Themes
People and Culture: Provide leadership and direction to all staff and volunteers, maximising and leveraging the skills and capabilities of the organisation to provide value services and programs to our community.
Funding and Growth: Developing business programs across all GCAIS services to investigate new opportunities for sponsorships, funding, grants and donations. Identifying potential partnerships to grow our services.
Research and Analysis: Identifying and engaging formal and informal research partners in order to align to the immediate and future needs of our community.
Programs: Review and realign programs and services to the GCAIS Vision and Mission and produce a relevant, well researched and structurally sound offering to our clients.
Infrastructure and Reporting: Consolidating and streamlining back office functions, reporting and IT resources to meet governance requirements and better manage relationships with our stakeholders.
