Logan together LEADERSHIP TABLE Thursday 14th march 2019 Meadowbrook Conference room, Griffith University Logan Campus, University Drive, Meadowbrook 9:30-11.30 am Attendance: Note membership list attached to these minutes Apologies: Jacinta Powell (Proxy Michelle Wellington), Craig Kennedy (Proxy Joanne Bridges), John Norfolk, Amanda Currie, Nick McGuire, Leith Sterling, Aunty Robyn Williams, Michael Jacobs, Louise Litchfield, Mary Anne Colllier, Linda O’Brien (Proxy Susanne Osborne) 1. Welcome and Introductions Margaret Allison, Chair, welcomed everyone to the March meeting of the Logan Together Leadership Table (LT) and noted apologies, proxies and guests. The Chair acknowledged sorry business with regard to institutional abuse, following the conviction of Cardinal Pell last week. 2. Project Update: Community Maternity and Child Health Program Michelle O’Connor (Midwifery Unit Manager) provided an update on the Logan Community Maternity and Child Health program.
• 400 families cared for to date • 2 x 5 and 2 x 4 midwives 4 x Hubs (Access Gateway, Browns Plains Early Years
Centre, ATSICHS, Hosanna (outreach)) • Recruitment to commence re: Assistant • Working with PHN regarding communication and linkages, ensuring the networks
and GP’s have information and smooth processes for referral. • Students commenced (Griffith) • External Evaluation commissioned by Qld Health commenced late last year with
final report due in June - Carramar • First birthday celebrations 3rd May, coinciding with the week of the Internal Day of
the Midwife. • Hubs fb page to start. Will be a tool to reach some women • The figures show an increase in vaginal births. • Hubs recently granted funding for a project officer (0.4) to look at smoking
cessation in pregnancy. • Currently reviewing the right@home program to see how we can work with this
program.
It was noted there are still women who are unable to be contacted after referral. To date this is around 39 women. The previous numbers of women presenting unbooked for delivery was 600, so the hubs are nearing operating capacity. It was queried whether we are aware of what the current number of unbooked mothers arriving for delivery, as a comparison against the figure of 600. Discussion ensued on disseminating positive messages to the community. A communique will be coming out in relation to reaching some of the women who aren’t accessing the services after referral, or are invisible to the service. 3. Warril Yari-Go Matthew Cox provided an overview of the Warril Yari-Go group which was formed prior to ChangeFest. Members include Traditional Owner, Aunty Robyn Williams, Local Elders, representatives of Logan District Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Corporation, Gunya Meta, Jinndi Mibunn Beenleigh Housing & Development Corporation and the Stronger Smarter Institute. Member of Warril Yari-Go, Geoff Mount, was welcomed to the meeting. The members of Warril Yari-Go review the needs and priorities in the community and have the potential to activate where there are significant issues that are identified and discussed through strong cultural process. The group can then move to action quickly. It was suggested the coordination of Warril Yari-Go and the Leadership Table to ensure cross-pollination of the whole group. After discussion, the following governance arrangements were suggested.
• Joint meeting of Warril Yari-Go and the Leadership table every 6 months; • Warril Yari-Go members also Leadership Table members • Consider co-chairing arrangement; • Regular information exchange between the two groups
4. Project Schedule and Updates The Project Update was tabled, and the following updates provided:
• Social services reform – Currently working with yfs, UnitingCare and CSIA on this project, namely how can we more coherently use resources.
• Transdisciplinary Support in Community Settings – Currently looking at how it would look with health support and disability pathways within kindergartens. Work is commencing for this service in May. Currently reviewing the health mapping process, namely how screening processes map back to specialists, the GP system into services provided by the state to the child. It was noted Victoria does integration between education and health well.
5. Kindy Scholarships /Birth Certificates
Penny Goodall provided an update on the Kindy Scholarships project. Bendigo Bank have provided $20,000 in kindy scholarships where finance is the key barrier to kindy. Currently looking at C&K administering the funding, with discussions continuing next week. Bendigo Bank staff have undergone Kindy Conversations training to use with Bendigo customers. The issue of children being unable to enrol in prep until birth certificates are sighted has been an issue for some Logan families again this year. Last year 50 birth certificates were privately funded, and this year 30 have been privately funded. A letter has been drafted to the Attorney General and Minister for Education to look at how this could be rectified. Additionally, we are working on a submission to the State Government. Discussion ensued on lack of hardship provision and affect on the community. It was suggested we could look at a targeted activity, such as ID sign on day for families. It was also suggested Child & Health Nurses could check with parents that they have registered the birth. 4. Leadership table update on consultations Matthew Cox presented on the possible options for the Leadership Table in the future following consultation with Child & Family Chapter, Backbone Team, Warril Yari-Go, DSS Reps (see attachment). There was some discussion about changing the name of the Chapter, perhaps to the Logan Together Network? Discussion ensued. Discussions will be held with the Child & Family Chapter with regard to their format. 8. General Business Cath Bartolo will be chairing the April meeting.
The next meeting will be held on 11th April. The meeting closed at 11.30am

Project – 2nd phase
The Australian Early Development Census (AEDC) results guide much the work of Logan Together - we want kids in Logan to be at the same level as kids across Queensland. We are guiding by the life stage approach seen on our Roadmap for Change, to ensure we are doing everything at each age and stage to get kids off to a great start. The AEDC domains show us where we need to focus and how Logan is doing.
As Logan Together kicked off in 2015, we are keeping a close eye on AEDC movements across the next seven years to guide where we focus our work and the change needs to happen most - both geographically and per domain. As projects develop across the city, the AEDC results is one of the tools which tell us what’s working.
Here’s some key insights into what they tell us:
At Logan, Queensland and Australia-wide levels there is a general trend towards small decreases in overall rates of vulnerability as measured by the vulnerable on one domain or more measure. But it is slow progress!
Since 2012 overall rates of vulnerability in Logan are decreasing slightly faster than across Queensland and Australia as a whole.
Progress is uneven - some domains are improving but some are fluctuating or going backwards from one collection to the next.
In Logan, things are generally heading in a positive direction with more suburbs showing long term improvement trends than the opposite and the overall numbers for the city getting slightly better over time.
THE 2018 AEDC FIGURES HAVE ARRIVED!

32.3% 31.7% 31%1,396 1,508 1,511
Number of suburbs with changes in levels of vulnerability
Overall about 22% of suburbs in Logan have expereinced decreases in vulnerability since 2012.
We need to be cautious in interpreting changes at a suburb level because the sample sizes are small
and many different factors can influence the results but we would rather see this trend than the opposite.

A closer look at the 5 AEDC domains in LoganSince 2012 there have been small movements in rates of
vulnerability (of less than 1%) in the Physical health and wellbeing, Social competence and Emotional maturity domains, but a more
significant positive trend in the Language and cognitive skills and Communication and general knowledge domains.

The Australian Early Development Census (AEDC) provides a national measurement to monitor Australian children’s development across five domains: physical wellbeing, social wellbeing, emotional wellbeing, language, and communication. The AEDC provides evidence to support policy, planning and action for health, education and community support.
