Labor Leader Rebecca White today paid tribute to outgoing CEO of TasCOSS, Kym Goodes.
"Kym's advocacy work has helped shape public debate on important issues such as housing, education and intergenerational poverty," Ms White said.
"Her ability to bring the community sector together and actively work towards a whole of government approach to healthy communities is to be commended and we thank her particularly for her work on empowering communities and connecting people with jobs in order to overcome disadvantage.
"Kym's commitment to ensuring people less fortunate always have a voice was evident even this week, with the release of the TCCI's Tasmania Report.
"We are sure Kym's influence at TasCOSS will continue, and trust the next CEO has the same passion for investment in social services and infrastructure.
"Labor wishes Kym all the best with her consulting business and into the future."
