Harriss Wagner, technology transition program

Over 2021, we were saddened to have to close our shelters/crisis accommodation and limit community face-to-face, meals and celebrations, which is central to our mission. Gratefully, video conferencing allowed our Leadership team to embark on other projects to support the delivery of our mission including technology.

While behind the scenes our administration works, we’ve acknowledged for some time the need to improve technology (or actually introduce technology in some respects). With the help of Harriss Wagner, our technology transition pro bono partner, we used this time to develop, and implement a new technology environment including a contemporary Intranet.

Our aim… to improve and modernise operations while also mitigating risk for the benefit of our volunteers and those people who rely on our services and support.

Harriss Wagner’s Client Services Partner, Amanda Harriss and Senior Consultant, Kate McDonald have been instrumental in their support, patience and friendship throughout this vital project. We would like to thank you for all your work and appreciate your aligned values and continued contribution to our community.

“Harriss Wagner’s involvement in driving our technology transition program has had a profound impact on the support and services that Cana is now able to offer those people in need.”
