Wooroloo Prison Farm is working with the local community via a Community Liaison Group (CLG), which was formed in June 2006.
The group aims to increase and strengthen Wooroloo Prison Farm's commitment to the local community, as part of continuing developments at the prison farm.
Members of the group represent a cross-section of interests. While membership may change from time to time, individuals aim to represent local business, social, sport, educational, agriculture, cultural, volunteer, government, indigenous and community organisations.
CLG members welcome community feedback. They can also accept ideas for supervised community work projects undertaken by approved prisoners. The current members are:

Criteria for membership of the group include:
