TCA Participant Framework

At its heart, The Compassionate Alliance provides a practical framework that guides organisations to focus on three key areas:

• supporting their own people, including staff and volunteers;
• supporting those connected to them, such as clients, customers, members and communities; and
• strengthening internal systems, policies and practices.

Through a 12-month cycle that includes a self-assessment, and personalised guidance, organisations are empowered to embed Compassionate Communities principles into their everyday work.

Importantly, this initiative also recognises and celebrates the work already happening (ie dementia friendly workplaces healthy cities and age-friendly) providing a shared platform where efforts can be acknowledged, strengthened and connected.
