Community Connections

Feeling connected matters. Community Connections supports you to meet new people, explore your interests and build meaningful connections in your local community in ways that feel right for you. 

Service overview

Community Connections is a free program of up to 12 sessions where you’ll work one-on-one with a program coordinator to explore what matters to you. 

Maybe you’d like to meet new people, try something different, volunteer, reconnect with an old hobby or simply feel more confident getting involved in your community. 

We’ll start with your interests and goals, then work alongside you to find local activities, groups and connections that can help you take the next step. 

How we can support you

 

Community Connections can support you to: 

  • explore social groups, activities and events in your local community  

  • meet people who share your interests  

  • build confidence in trying new activities and social situations  

  • explore volunteering and other ways to get involved  

  • reconnect with interests or activities you’ve enjoyed before  

  • connect with other services, networks and information that may be useful to you  

We are here for you

Community Connections is available to people aged 18–64 living in South Australia who aren’t eligible for NDIS or My Aged Care support.

If you’re feeling disconnected from the people or community around you, or you’d simply like more opportunities to get involved, you’re welcome to get in touch.

Priority is given to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, people experiencing financial disadvantage, people from culturally and linguistically diverse communities, LGBTIQA+ people, unpaid carers and people living in communities where access to opportunities may be limited.

These priority groups don’t exclude other people experiencing social isolation from contacting the program.
