‘When you are surrounded by people who share a passionate commitment around a common purpose, anything is possible.’ Howard Shultz. Our legacy For over 30 years, Anglicare Central Queensland has worked with people of all backgrounds, beliefs and walks of life to make the best of their lives. As an organisation with truly local roots, AnglicareCQ is dedicated to leading the way in the community services sector as we pride ourselves on empowering and supporting our participants, upholding human rights and advocating for the removal of unjust structures.

We serve communities in and around Rockhampton, Gladstone, Biloela, Moura, Blackwater, Emerald, Barcaldine, Longreach and Winton. Our Board, staff and volunteers live in the communities they serve, in regional and remote locations. Attitude determines altitude We believe that through respect, integrity, hope, compassion, innovation and purpose, we can work with our participants to overcome many of life’s challenges which can affect our mental and physical well-being, financial position, relationships and family life. At AnglicareCQ we hire for attitude and train for skills. Quality assurance and continuous improvement Our organisation is committed to continuous improvement.
