From 2021, By Five represents an innovative partnership between the WSM community, the Wimmera Development Association, the WSM Regional Partnership, the Centre for Community Children Health (CCCH) at The Royal Children's Hospital and the Murdoch Children's Research.
In May 2021, the Victorian Government announced funding over four years to build on the foundational work of By Five; transition to a community facilitated project; and further leverage the partnership with CCCH to catalyse and accelerate change and provide learnings that can be applied in other regions of rural Victoria.
