TACSI

At TACSI, Vita combines her three passions – co-design, social innovation and social entrepreneurship – to create scalable and sustainable solutions to some of society’s most challenging social issues. Her strategic eye, empathetic approach and ability to build a strong supporting case makes her the perfect person to bring about change in tough environments. She says the best part of her job is witnessing people change their future when given the right support, and loves connecting with inspirational people who are delivering smart responses to complex issues.

Quietly persistent with an empathetic approach, Barbara strives to see the world through other people’s eyes. For the last four years, her focus has been supporting the spread and implementation of ‘Weavers’, a peer-to-peer support model that helps carers manage the ongoing challenges of caring, reducing the stress of caring and increasing wellbeing.

A champion and advocate for the voice of the people, Danielle’s spent the last 20 years working on the ground with youth, families and in community development. For the last decade she’s worked at TACSI on designing, delivering and implementing peer-to-peer solutions, including Family by Family in Australia and the UK.
