Centacare: Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton is a large,
vibrant and well respected community organisation providing services
across the Central Queensland region: from Mackay in the north; to
Bundaberg in the south; and west to Longreach. Our primary focus is the
delivery of compassionate yet professional social services to all
through education, counselling and community support – to encourage and
strengthen individuals, couples and families to continue to develop and
grow.
As the official Catholic social service agency for the
Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton, Centacare serves all people without
regard to religion, race, age, economic circumstance or ethnic
background.
As a not for profit organisation, Centacare’s
dominant purpose is to provide direct relief of suffering, stress,
misfortune, disability or helplessness, sickness and the effects of
poverty for the benefit of the community or a section of it.
Centacare’s role and purpose is achieved through the provision of professional community services comprising four streams:
- Counselling and Education
- Family Relationship Centres
- Community Care
- Case Management
Our strategic objectives and initiatives reflect the Bishop’s outcomes and priorities for the Diocese.
Our
primary contribution is strengthening services to the community within
the Diocese and is made through the ongoing development and maintenance
of policy and planning frameworks, and the funding, coordination and
delivery of programs and support services to individuals and families in
need. Please explore the links below and the main menu above for
more specific information on the role of Centacare, our services, faith,
and governance. Links 1 - 7 below reflect our content for the Report to Stakeholders 2010 - 2011.
