COSS Network Statement: As impact of COVID-19 grows, survey shows vital community services sinking with demand
The not-for-profit community service sector provides services we all rely on, both during crisis, and over our lifetimes. Community services include childcare and aged care; as well as support for people in times of great need, such as when they’re escaping domestic violence, facing homelessness or struggling to feed their families.
