We are Anglicare North Queensland

More than individual services. Connected support that helps people move forward.

At Anglicare North Queensland, we support individuals, young people and families facing challenges with housing, homelessness, education, training, wellbeing and community connection.

We provide practical support that helps people find stability, build confidence and access opportunities for the future. Whether someone needs housing support, help reconnecting with education and training, or access to essential community resources, we work alongside them to understand what matters most and connect them with the right support.

We know every person’s circumstances are different. Through our range of services and partnerships, we listen, build trust and help people navigate challenges with care and compassion.

From Cairns and Townsville to Airlie Beach, Cape York and the Torres Strait, we are here to support people wherever they are on their journey.

No matter where someone is starting from, everyone deserves to be heard, respected and supported, that is the Anglicare NQ Way.

Youth Support & Training

Supporting Young People to Thrive

Helping young people build resilience, connection and confidence.

 

Every young person deserves support, encouragement and a sense of belonging. We work alongside young people to strengthen connections, navigate challenges and build the confidence needed to achieve their goals.

Through early support and positive engagement, we help create opportunities for young people to stay connected to their communities and move forward with confidence.

Creating Pathways Through Education & Training

Supporting young people to build skills, confidence and opportunities for the future.

 

Education can open doors to new opportunities. Our youth training initiatives provide practical pathways for young people to develop skills, grow in confidence and take positive steps towards further education, employment and independence.

By creating supportive learning environments and encouraging personal growth, we help young people realise their potential and prepare for what comes next.

“When I first started with Anglicare I was in a really dark headspace. The friendly way they work with people was really good, it helped me get out of my shell. They were able to help me get past my issues with my situation. They were a able to get me a job. Able to support me through some hardships I've went through and always kept a friendly face and aways gave good advice. That helped me through.” 

“I didn’t realise how exhausting it was to keep moving around until I finally had a place of my own. Having stable housing has let me breathe again. I’m sleeping better, feeling safer, and actually thinking about plans for the future — not just surviving day to day.”

“They changed my life definitely in a positive way. They pushed me into the right direction starting a career. I wouldn't imagine myself going into this without Anglicare. I literally had no Id's whatsoever and it was really good that they helped me to get all my documents together and helped me to get into this program. It was in general a good impact. I wouldn't be who I am without Anglicare.”
