Our organisational approach is guided by these key initiatives


This approach embraces the ability to work together, creating opportunities, as well as to identify and mobilise strengths, while working towards achieving goals for:
• People
• Key stakeholders
• The community

Elements that should be considered include:

• Respectful relationships
• Positive regard for an individual’s ability, their dignity, rights, social justice and uniqueness
• Acknowledging and addressing power imbalances between systems, service providers, communities and individuals.

This approach informs and guides decision making by integrating the following situational queries:

• A client’s unique situation, expectations and values
• The practitioner’s education, skills and expertise
• The researchers, evidence-based practice.

Through success and adaptation, program implementation will benefit a greater number of people.

This approach works on the principle that all individuals or families presenting for help are connected with the right service, even if that service is not offered.

This is achieved through established partnership connections with other existing service providers that are designed to be easy for clients to engage with.

This approach aims to reduce stress and repetition of service access processes experienced by individuals and families.

This approach considers an individual or families unique:
• Circumstances
• Aspirations
• The wider context in which these aspirations are formed and realised.
• What matters

Developing a holistic understanding of an individual’s perception and experience of the world around them is important for service delivery to connect and succeed.

We acknowledge the Traditional owners of the lands on which we work and live. We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, and acknowledge Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders as the first people. They have never ceded sovereignty, and remain strong in their enduring connection to land, water and culture.
