Local Area Coordinators
Local Area Coordinators (LACs) are people who work in the community and do different things depending on what the community needs.
They can provide advice and information on what is available in the local community. They can also help people to access services or find activities they want to try in their local area. They will take time to talk to you and get to know you. They will listen to the things you want to do and try to help you to make it happen.
Local Area Coordinators can also help you to make changes in your community. If there are services which you need in your community but don't exist, they can help you to raise awareness of what is needed. They may also be able to help you to make improvement to local public services.
