Jaclyn Symes

Jaclyn Symes is a country girl born and bred in Benalla in Northern Victoria. She attended Benalla College where she completed her VCE in 1996 before moving to Melbourne to undertake a Bachelor of Laws from Deakin University. She was admitted to practice as an Australian lawyer in 2006.

Jaclyn’s passion for social justice and hard work was instilled in her by her parents and led her to her to working with people with disabilities as a carer at Alkira Residential Services. Her time at Alkira has made her acutely aware of the struggles that those with a disability experience on a daily basis and the importance of Government putting in place the right policy settings to minimise their challenges.

“STRENGTHENING YOUR VOICE”

Do you have a passion for your community?  Do you advocate on behalf of your club, committee or neighbourhood? Are you keen to expand your social and professional network, and learn how to make a difference?

People with passion and vision are central to how communities make decisions, and how projects and services are ultimately delivered. In support of the role our residents hold, The Rural City of Wangaratta is excited to announce our 2018 Community Leadership Program so save the date!

The aim of the program is to support Wangaratta’s emerging leaders to:

– develop their leadership skills in a supportive environment;
– encourage involvement in our community’s Committees and Boards;
– establish new and exciting links with like-minded people;
– meet and work with Wangaratta’s decision makers; and
– contribute to a culture where community leadership is a recognised and rewarding activity.
