2 years of organising and 70 hours of execution this week, we are cream-crackered. All this while supporting our communities in getting vaxxed....

Great team effort working and planning with the Local Community Services Association's staff, board and members. It was a pleasure to go through this amazing journey with you... Looking forward to the next one.

Counterpoint’s Covid Vax Assist Project Sleeves

Counterpoint’s Covid Vax Assist Project

Sleeves Up!!! The Covid Vax Assist project seeks to help people struggling to navigate the vaccine booking process, reduce access barriers where possible and encourage those eligible to roll up their sleeves and take the shot.

We have established a telephone helpline and an email address. We will be conducting outreach to offer what help we can to increase vaccine uptake. Social housing tenants who can prove they are fully vaccinated undertaken on the advice of a health practitioner can enter our monthly prize draw!

If you require assistance in getting a Vaccine appointment or want to show support for our campaign. In that case, we can be contacted at covid@counterpointcs.org.au Or call Counterpoint Covid Assist number on 02 9062 5161.

Also, send us a video clip or tag us, telling us why you took the shot!

Light Up Lockdown
Counterpoint Community Services' Covid Vax Assist' project calls on those who have gotten the jab to show some solidarity for our health workers and each other. Let's Light Up Lockdown and demonstrate that together, we can end this pandemic.

Like the 'We Live Here' project in 2017 where residents lit up their windows to express how they felt about the area's redevelopment plans, Light Up Lockdown calls on all social housing towers (and others) to do the same.

We ask people to light up their most visible windows with any decorative lights they may have every night until the end of the Sydney lockdown. Some ideas include LED battery operated strip lights, Christmas fairy lights, and window LED sucker lights.

Community Housing Providers have become a fixture

Community Housing Providers have become a fixture of social and affordable housing supply. So what are they? How do they operate and do tenant experiences match expectations and purported outcomes?
