August 19, 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

Member for Nanango Deb Frecklington is encouraging veterans, their families, and the wider community to help shape the first Queensland Veterans\u2019 and Veterans\u2019 Families\u2019 Strategy.<\/p>\n

She said the State Government strategy aimed to deliver the best possible services and supports available for the people who had served the nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want to hear about the real issues faced by veterans and their families \u2014 from the challenges of transitioning to civilian life, to accessing employment, and managing health and wellbeing,\u201d Mrs Frecklington said.<\/p>\n

\u201cVeterans make an invaluable contribution to our communities. Their experience, leadership, and insight are unique and essential to shaping a stronger Queensland.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat\u2019s why we\u2019re asking veterans and those who support them to share their thoughts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Your voice matters, and your input will help guide a strategy that truly supports those who have served.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mrs Frecklington said the strategy would be developed through consultation with veterans, ex-service organisations, families and the wider community.<\/p>\n

The anonymous online survey<\/a> will be open until Friday, November 14.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
