About Us

Established as a Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) in 1980 Southern Peninsula Community Support (SPCS) has grown into a trusted and vital service for the local community. SPCS operates in partnership with other community and charitable groups plus local and national Government agencies. Major funding is provided by the Mornington Peninsula Shire who also provide our premises. Base funding for emergency relief is supplied by the Department of Social Security, supplemented by donations from individuals, philanthropic trusts and charitable organisations.

Thanks to the wonderful partnerships SPCS has built over the years it has grown from its modest beginnings into a dynamic and proactive service for the local community.

WORKFORCE

SPCS is governed by a volunteer Board of Management and staffed by a small group of, mostly part time, paid staff. Importantly, there over 60 dedicated volunteers, as most of our programs are delivered by our wonderful, hard-working volunteers, without whom we would not be able to provide our services to the community.
