The need for HACC services to be accessible and responsive to people from
culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds has been identified
as an issue at both National and State levels for a number of years.
The purpose of the Strategy is to provide future direction and development
of services funded by the Queensland HACC Program to support people from culturally
and linguistically diverse backgrounds. It is relevant for all organisations,
service providers, government agencies and Health Service Districts that receive
HACC funding for the delivery of HACC services in Queensland.
This Strategy specifically identifies:
The current situation
in Queensland with regard to the distribution of people from CALD backgrounds
and HACC-funded services for this group; and
The policy context relating
to the provision of HACC funded services to people from culturally and linguistically
diverse backgrounds;
The broad future direction
for HACC-funded services in Queensland relating to people from CALD backgrounds
and their carers.
