We are pleased to announce the release of the Community Resilience Strategy - Year One Outcomes Report, February 2018. The report presents some key highlights, activities and outcomes from the Strategy implementation that took place during the period of 2016-2017.

On 29 July 2016, the Hon James Merlino MP, Minister for Emergency Services launched the Victoria State Emergency Service (VICSES) Community Resilience Strategy 2016-2019; an important element of realising VICSES’ vision of Safer Communities – Together.

The Strategy details our plan for building community resilience, through:

• Making us accountable to deliver our corporate imperatives;
• How we will join and connect with communities;
• How we will develop positive partnerships;
• How we will meet our traditional and emerging accountabilities as an emergency service organisation; and
• How we will provide and share timely, effective reporting that’s meaningful.
