As many communicare students and teachers as well parents know Dana's job was made redundent. I as a student cant stand the thought of her not being there. I came to commuicare at a very low point in my life and it all seemed to get worse and worse but dana was only really the one who belived in me even when I hit rock bottom I was gong to court for 39 charges and i wasnt living at home I was lost and my life took a bad turn but I went to school and even when my only parents and family had given up on me Dana didnt waver. Me and Dana had a good run we had our moments and those moments will forever be with me. Dana and me were so alike she understood me when no one else did you see beacause I was adopted and so was Dana so i felt like someone knew what I felt and she did. Dana has put her heart and soul into Commuincare and well as all the students she had changed my life and many others. So I ask you to stand with me and sign this petetion so we can not only have dana back but the heart of this school.

Seeing how many people feel the same way about Dana is completely overwhelming. I started this because I felt lost without her, but seeing all of you step up shows that she truly is the heart of this school. This momentum belongs entirely to the community that loves her.

Dana, is an incredible woman, she works tirelessly to help me with my son Taro. Communicare was the last resort for my son. Dana is so committed to her job. She consistently keeps me informed with Taro's progress. Follows up for me when I can't be there. She goes above and beyond of anyone I have ever seen. My son is actually disappointed that the one person he cares about is going to be taken away from him. She guides these teenagers in the right direction. The school is nothing without her

This woman has SAVED LIVES! You can't put a price on that. As a parent we need her for the 24 hour 7 days a week support she willingly gives. Communicare is crazy to let such an asset go. Please reinstate her!

As Danas previous leader and the instigator of the communicare academy I was most saddened to hear Communicare has made redundant another capable person over cost cutting exercises. Perhaps the board of this community organisation should carefully review its business practices for the greater good of the community

I cannot believe Dana has been made redundant. I have known Dana professionally for many years and in my opinion she is second to none with troubled and at risk youth. The young people and Communicare school are supremely lucky to have had her services.

Dana's job shouldn't become redundant as she is one of the major factors of Communicare Academy. As sell as other staff. Dana has made my girl's feel welcome and has aided them to adjusting to a better way of schooling. If Dana goes part of the academy will loose some of it's soul and we need more people like Dana who is accepting of the kids and their own personal needs.

Everyone to their own I suppose but Dana was the most valuable member of staff at this school, if this was to do with cutting costs then the schools at more of a loss without her. Dana's role in this school is so damn important, making her job redundant was an extremely poor decision.

Dana has helped a lot of students at communicate over the three years now and I am one of them. I came to the school when I was at a very low point in my life, I had been asked to leave my pervious school and honestly couldn't of cared for the schooling system. I came to communicare with the impression that it was like every other school but it wasn't. I went from not going to school at all to turning up everyday, from being a very disrespectful teenager who couldn't care about myself let a lone anyone else to respecting people and myself! I managed to finish my year 10 and 11 in one year with the help of all the teachers at CCA but mostly Dana, when everyone had given up on me including myself she gave me the support and guidance to help me finish my schooling, she is always putting the students before herself and I honestly could never thank her enough for everything she has done for me over the past years! Because of Dana and the support she gives all her students I am currently studding a diploma of Community services and I want to be able to help young teenagers like she helped me get to where I am today! So please think twice about making Diana's position redundant because the students at communicare do need her!
