DFFH/DoH Service Agreement

A service agreement is a legal contract between a government department and a funded organisation for delivery of services in the community on behalf of the Department of Health and Department of Families, Fairness and Housing.

Service agreements are set up as one contract with a service provider to ensure coordinated management across agencies and funding sources. Where a place-based approach is funded as part of a service agreement, it will be one of the funding lines included in the document.
