VincentCare Victoria attends Financial Counselling Victoria’s 2024 Summit

Discovering nuanced perspectives on hardship and empowerment.

Recently, our team from VincentCare Victoria’s Hume Community Hub and Northern Community Hub had the privilege of attending Financial Counselling Victoria’s 2024 Summit: “The Changing Face of Hardship” at The Timber Yard, Port Melbourne.

At the summit, we delved into invaluable insights from industry experts, exploring the multifaceted nature of hardship. Critical themes such as ‘The Cost of Living’, ‘Climate Change and Hardship’, ‘Responding to the Housing Crisis’, and ‘Complexity and Intersectionality’ were thoroughly examined.

We eagerly anticipate integrating these newfound insights into our ongoing efforts across the organisation. It’s not just about attending events for inspiration and networking; it’s about sharing knowledge to empower both ourselves and those who depend on our services.

Attending events like Financial Counselling Victoria’s summit serves as a reminder of the importance of continuous learning and collaboration in our mission to support individuals facing hardship. Let’s empower ourselves so that we can, in turn, empower those who rely on us.
