An exciting announcement from our CEO
For 30 years, Little Heroes has worked tirelessly to support children and families facing some of lifes greatest challenges. Through that work, one thing has become abundantly clear, while support services are vital, lasting change also requires strong advocacy, courageous leadership and people willing to stand up and speak for those whose voices are too often overlooked.
Today, I am incredibly proud to announce the formation of the Little Heroes Foundation Advocacy & Community Action Group.
This new initiative brings together an exceptional group of leaders and advocates who share a passion for improving outcomes for vulnerable children, people with disability and families across Australia. As founding members, I am honoured to welcome Nicole Borzillo, Dr Rodney Pearce AM, Lisa O’Malley and James LaBrooy, who will join me in leading this important work.
Together, we will focus on raising awareness, influencing policy, advocating for practical reform, strengthening community connections and championing equitable access to healthcare, disability supports, child safety initiatives and early intervention services, most importantly we will use our collective experience, networks and voices to ensure that children and families remain at the centre of the conversations and decisions that affect their lives.
This is more than an advocacy group. It is a commitment to action, collaboration and creating meaningful change where it is needed most.
I look forward to sharing more about our vision, our priorities and the work ahead in the months to come.
