Local government has a central role in protecting, improving and promoting the conditions that prevent disease and which support and encourage healthier lives. 

Your Council works hard to ensure the City of Whitehorse is a healthy place to live, one that is clean and safe, has adequate housing and services as well as opportunities for social engagement and employment.

Council delivers a range of programs and support services to protect and improve public health and the wellbeing of our community. We do this through education, prevention, protection, monitoring and enforcement, and the promotion of healthy living.

Respect isn’t just words, it’s actions. Listening, sharing the load, standing up for others. We all have a role to play in building safer, more respectful communities.

Visit the 16 Days of Activism page and hear from local residents on what respect means to them. 

Download a discussion guide for groups, workplaces, and community members talk about respect, equality, and how to prevent harm.
