Progress of the counselling service will depend on local input.
“Our sponsor has asked that we put resources into this and this Waffle Breakfast meeting is a start,” said Dave Cursons, a program coordinator.
“The breakfast event is to hear from men affected by the whole range of issues from health to family to work through to relations with public programs, civic authorities and the law. We need to find out from men themselves, how we should set out counselling priorities.”
