The Department of Communities (Communities) does not collect the referenced performance data for Entrypoint Perth, however Centrecare Inc, the service provider of Entrypoint, provides bi-annual reports to Communities.

This data is not collected as part of regular reporting and would require a diversion of Centrecare resources from core service delivery.

There is no waitlist for Entrypoint, however, a callback service is provided.

This data is not collected as part of regular reporting and would require a diversion of Centrecare resources from core service delivery.
