Welfare Justice Alternative Welfare Working Group |
Kia ora koutou,
Welfare justice: the alternative welfare working group was set up in July in response to the Government's welfare working group which is pushing an agenda of manufacturing an artificial crisis to justify potential reforms to our social security system, changes which many of us view as potentially highly damaging.
We are holding two public meetings in the Auckland region:
Thurs 9 Sept 10.00am - 1.00pm - Tatai Hono Marae, 8 Burleigh St, Grafton.
Monday 20 Sept 10.00am - 1.00pm - Manurewa Marae, 81 Finlayson Ave, Manurewa.
The meetings will be an opportunity for people with an interest in welfare reform to:
• learn a little more about the work of the alternative welfare working group
• workshop ideas about what you think are the most important principles for our welfare system
• share examples of what is and isn't working
• give your thoughts on recommendations for positive change.
For more information, please see http://alternativewelfareworkinggroup.org.nz
To RSVP or for queries re the meetings, contact

We would really appreciate it if you could forward this information on to other people and groups in your networks. Thanks!
Mike O'Brien & Sue Bradford - Auckland members of the Alternative Welfare Working Group.
