Priority Areas
In 2009-2010 PCP member agencies participated in a planning process to identify the key priority areas for health promotion in the Inner East region.
From this planning process a decision was made to focus on mental health and wellbeing. Based on regional population research, two health determinants were selected as priority areas; Prevention of Family Violence and Social Inclusion.
| PCP Strategic Goal | To enhance mental health & wellbeing |
| Priority Area | Goal |
| Prevention of Family Violence | To prevent family violence within the Inner East PCP catchment, with a key focus on primary prevention of violence against women. |
| Social Inclusion | To build socially inclusive communities within the Inner East PCP catchment |
