Community Participation in Lawn Hill
How people contribute — volunteering, unpaid care and domestic work, and defence service.
Community involvement in Lawn Hill has shifted since 2011, most notably with a very high number of residents who have served in the military. While volunteer rates are typical for the region, the area has far fewer people performing unpaid care and housework compared to the rest of the country.
