The COCB began over a decade ago as Queensland based network to support community board through regional responses.
Here on the Sunshine Coast the SCCOCB has continued as a sustainable entity run by volunteers with support from Sunshine Coast Council.
Small community organisations have a vital role contributing to strong, vibrant and inclusive communities.
Our activities include:
- Strengthening governance in boards of small community organisations
- Providing training and resources that can assist small community organisations
- Building a network of organisations that support each other
- Mentoring and encouraging peer-support
- Advocacy and analysis on issues affecting small community organisations.
The Sunshine Coast Coalition of Community Boards Cooperative Ltd (SCCOCBC) is made up of people who are members of small Sunshine Coast not- for-profit community organisations. We understand the challenges that small community organisations face, as we face them too! As a Co-op we are member-based and are committed to co-operative principles and practices.
With many thanks to our long-term supporter Sunshine Coast Council
