We are located in the heart of the City of Greater Dandenong we are easy to access and the staff are happy to make time to spend with everyone who walks through the door. We have a strong commitment to community development, and direct service provision in this area and therefore have access to many partners and relevant/up-to-date information on local needs. A vigorous and purposeful organisation has managed to recruit some of the most inspiring and dedicated staff, who help to attract a wide range of local residents to be involved in the services offered. We deliver a range of “core” programs focusing mainly on education, training, skills development, community participation and advocacy. The services offered by Dandenong Neighbourhood Community and Learning Centre are constantly evolving and changing to meet the needs of our community and support where service gaps are identified. Our intention, as a community development organisation is to stay close to the grass roots and work from a social justice perspective to address such things as disadvantage, empowerment, needs, and rights.
