Under 1 Roof celebrates five years of case coordination and launches Triage Project Report

Under 1 Roof was joined by over 50 guests on Friday 27 March 2015 to celebrate five years of case coordination work and to launch a report reflecting the findings and possible directions emerging from a trial triage project that unfolded in Brisbane’s north during 2014.

The project was enabled by funding from North Brisbane Partners in Recovery Innovation Fund and involved 24 participating agencies in the trial project. Several people were on hand to talk about what case coordination groups are achieving and what has been learned. Stephen Hawkins presented learnings and findings from Brisbane North Case Coordination Group while Andy Denniss from Ipswich Churches of Christ Care was on hand to explain the emergence of Under 1 Roof Ipswich, its progress and offered some views on opportunities to strengthen this way of working in more locations. Annemaree Callander from BYS, who sits on U1R Board, presented some key learnings from U1R Brisbane.

Jeff Cheverton from Metro North Brisbane Medicare Local provided a response to the launch of the report while Michael Bailey, president of the Rotary Club of Fortitude Valley provided words of encouragement to U1R about its progress and outcomes. This was an opportunity to offer heartfelt thanks to the RCFV for their continued support. As Co-Chair Kent Maddock said:

“On a day like today as we look back to our beginnings we can’t help but sincerely acknowledge and thank the Rotary Club of Fortitude Valley. Under 1 Roof was started by ordinary citizens through Rotary as a vehicle. We only exist because of their early work and the capacity for case coordination is supported every year through their philanthropy. On behalf of U1R we thank Michael Bailey as president and Julie Heckenberg who is on the U1R board. Please extend our thanks to Rotary for your initial vision, your hard work and continued support. The outcomes presented today are a direct consequence of your commitment.”
