In Contatto - Sept/Oct 07
"In Contatto" provides 'companionship' and 'care' to more than 3000 older
Italo-Australians. Older Italians often experience profound isolation that
can also affect their carers. The newsletter 'In Contatto' was introduced
with the prime objective of providing information and 'companionship' to
this group of people.
'In Contatto' is a quarterly free publication and people can receive a copy of it at home. For further information call Co.As.It. on 95640744.

The Changing Needs of Co.As.It. Senior Social Groups - Research Report
This report represents the first major appraisal of Italian social support
groups in Sydney. The purpose of the report was to identify: the types of
needs across the groups, the nature and level of existing support, service
gaps, the current support through Co.As.It. and potential structures and
the capacity of staff to fulfill the needs of the groups. The report was
completed at the end of 2002 and was officially launched on the 14th of
August 2003. The report provides Co.As.It. with a 3-5 year working plan for
the aged care team.
