General Manager's Report

CAFDA was affected by the recession and it's surrounding communities has been hard hit. As a registered child protection agency, economic and  community development form a life line to disadvantaged communities in the Southern suburbs .

Funding CAFDA services were not meeting funding criteria in order to obtain the necessary funds to survive. It has became a struggle between continuing rendering services and closing down, and became a regular Tug of war. The impact of closing this 67 year old organisation will have had
a huge negative effect on the community, but even more so, on the staff and their families who loyally served the community. The staff has worked hard during the past year to render effective services under difficult circumstance.
