The Vision and Action Plan focus on improving outcomes in healthcare, education, communities and place, and regional homes. They are available for download below:

Healthcare
People are physically and mentally healthy so they can make the most of their daily lives.

Education
Education and training give people opportunities and choices about how to live and contribute to their communities.

Communities and Places
Communities and places are vibrant and inclusive, with access to quality services and infrastructure.

Regional Homes
Communities have safe, affordable and quality accommodation to meet their needs.
Our Vision for Regional Communities identifies three further enablers of better outcomes for regional communities.
Each enabler is an essential foundation for achieving the best possible outcomes across all four focus areas.
Workforce
Attracting, growing and retaining workers to provide services by offering career, financial and lifestyle benefits for skilled people and their families.
Place-based Services
Working with local people and communities to secure services that meet local needs, are well coordinated, and represent value for money.
Connectivity
