Project Timeline: August 2007-February 2009
Project Aim: The ‘Great Expectations’ Youth Mentor program
provides support, through mentoring to young people in the Swan Hill Region.
Thus exposing young people to other life experiences and increased opportunities
that they would not otherwise be exposed to.
Testimonial: “Being able to work with
an organised and professional organisation makes any project planning
easier. Local Logic Place has demonstrated their ability to be flexible
and creative in their approach. Its not an easy job having to communicate
with such a variety of community people, young and old, and Local Logic
Place made this process appear simple. The Youth Charter is just one example
of how well Local Logic Place can deliver. The final product is a well
documented expression of our local vision on youth and Local Logic Place
did well to capture this.”

Project Aim: To bring the children and family service
sector together to build collaboration, enhance service provision for
families, and develop relationships through a local network. Services
will be facilitated to meet, share information about service provision
and development, service gaps and opportunities.
Testimonial: Mallee Family Care is the largest Community
Services Organization in north-west Victoria. For some time now it has
engaged the services of Local Logic Place. We have found Local Logic Place
to be a highly professional business. Its personnel are extremely competent,
engaging and very “switched on” to all community based issues and developments.
It is an innovative business that will bring great rewards to those who
engage its services.

Step Out, Aspire & Reflect (SOAR) with Support Women's Leadership Program
Project Title: Step Out, Aspire & Reflect (SOAR)
with Support Women's Leadership Program Client Name:
Australian Women in Agriculture (AWIA) & Swan Hill Business and Professional
Women
Project Timeline: July 2008-June 2009
Project Aim: The SOAR with Support Project will allow
women who are not actively involved in their communities to develop personally
as well as give something back to their communities especially during
a time of prolonged drought. SOAR offers leadership training and experiences
in a supportive, encouraging and non-threatening environment. On completion
of the SOAR Program participants will have increased knowledge of community
development practices, local services and supports, rural leadership opportunities
and a greater overall self awareness, personal support networks, capacity
and confidence. It is the aim of the consortium through the implementation
of the SOAR with Support Project to continuously and progressively move
the Swan Hill region along with our NSW neighbours towards a level of
equality in agriculture and related industries not yet witnessed in rural
or urban Australia.
Our Role: Local Logic Place has been engaged to work
closely with the auspicing body: Australian Women in Agriculture and BPW.
With their demonstrated experience working with women on farms, indigenous
women and women from economically and socially disadvantaged backgrounds
they are ideally placed to coordinate the SOAR Program delivery locally.
Local Logic Place will support the SOAR with Support Women's Leadership
Program by providing project set-up and design, creation of an evaluation
framework and the overall coordination of the project, working closely
with the Program Management Group to ensure their vision for the project
is realised.
