The Victorian Inclusion Agency is funded by the Australian Government Department of Education to deliver the Inclusion Support Program (ISP) in Victoria.
Community Child Care Association has led the Victorian Inclusion Agency since 2016, delivering the program in consortium with KU Children’s Services and Yooralla.
We are supported by the Victorian Aboriginal Education Association (VAEAI), the peak Koorie community organisation for education and training in Victoria.
