Library Connect wins Award for Excellence
A ground-breaking program that places a community support worker at the Fremantle Library has been recognised with a prestigious Library Board of WA Excellence Award 2021 for Innovation and Collaboration.
The Library Connect program, which was launched in September last year, uses Fremantle Library as an intervention setting for identifying and supporting people experiencing homelessness, hardship and other disadvantages.
At the core of the program is a St Patrick’s Community Support Centre support worker based at the library who engages with people and provides advice, referrals and support on the ground where it’s needed.
