Advance Diversity Services Visit

Mr MARK COURE (Oatley)

—Earlier this year I had the opportunity to visit the new centre of Advance Diversity Services with the Acting Minister for Multiculturalism and Seniors, Minister Geoff Lee. Advance Diversity Services is a not-for-profit community organisation that has serviced my electorate of Oatley since 1981. This organisation does a lot of great work for the community, from providing support for carers, the elderly, migrants, and the LGBTIQ+ community. It was my pleasure to introduce Minister Lee to the wonderful staff at the centre, who have recently relocated their head office from Rockdale to Hurstville. The visit allowed for an open dialogue to discuss the services offered by Advance Diversity Services, as well as ways that the Government can continue to support their organisation moving forward. I would like to acknowledge Antoinette Chow, Chief Executive Officer, as well as Ruth Fyfe, Chairperson, for their continued leadership and governance. I look forward to continuing to work with Advance Diversity Services in the future.
