The CLP's objectives

In seeking to address its Mission Statement the CLP's objectives are:
  1. To enable people to live within the community with the greatest degree of dignity and independence, in accommodation as typical to that any other person enjoys.

  2. To respond to the needs of the people using the service rather than to the needs of the organisation.

  3. To promote the development and acquisition of relationships, roles of importance, valued community lifestyles, and skills.

  4. To promote and support a wide range of community integrated opportunities according to individual and family needs.

  5. To promote, support and be involved in the development of policies which ensure coordinated and accessible services for people in the southern region (of Adelaide).

  6. To promote and advocate for access to community resources and services for people ensuring that the same opportunities are available as for any other person in the community.

  7. To enable, establish, enhance maintain and/or defend valued social roles for people, particularly for those at value risk, by using, as much as possible, culturally valued means.

  8. To liaise closely and consult with concerned people, appropriate parent groups and other service providers to ensure that the policies and standards of the Association are regularly evaluated and reviewed.

  9. To promote the philosophy and practise of community inclusion for people through advocacy, education and positive examples.

  10. To develop and maintain a close working relationship with funding bodies and to ensure that the Project continues to be fully funded.

  11. To be innovative and provide a pro-active rather than a crisis driven/oriented service.

  12. To promote the participation of individuals and families at all levels of decision-making within the organisation.

  13. To do all such other things as may be incidental to the attainment of such objects.
