About Us
We are leaders in mental health service delivery, specialising in working with adults and young people, and in early childhood intervention.
Our mission is to provide comprehensive, integrated, and person-centred care across the Central Queensland, Wide Bay, and Sunshine Coast regions. We address service gaps for the 'missing middle' by enhancing accessibility and integrating primary mental health care, psychosocial support, and early intervention.
Through a hub and spoke model, specialised resources and coordination are centralised, while local spokes ensure community-based service delivery. This approach promotes holistic wellbeing by considering broader determinants of health, fostering collaboration among providers, and ensuring a sustainable, adaptable service responsive to community needs.
Our diverse consortium includes eight partners: Central Queensland Indigenous Development, Flourish Australia, Gympie Women's Health Centre, Open Minds Australia, Queensland Injectors Health Network, REFOCUS Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Services, Wellways Australia, and us. This coalition enhances service delivery through comprehensive, community-focused care.
We offer specialist services which improve the lifelong mental health of children, young people, and adults – and help people with complex needs live better. Our goal is to set you on a path to find your motivation, resilience, and ultimately, your strength.
Our focus on both prevention and treatment of mental health conditions reflects our commitment to building evidence-based services across Australia. Working alongside you, we're dedicated to providing specialist services that make a positive impact in the lives of our clients and their families.
