CatholicCare Social Services 502 Ruthven Street, Toowoomba City, Queensland 4350

Welcome to CatholicCare Social Services, located at 502 Ruthven Street in Toowoomba City, Australia. As the social services agency of the Catholic Diocese of Toowoomba, CatholicCare is dedicated to promoting individual, family, and community wellbeing.

At CatholicCare, we offer a wide range of professional and ethically based family and relationship services through The Toowoomba Family Relationship Centre. Our dedicated team supports families going through relationship breakdowns and the separation process, providing information, advice, and referral services. We also offer personalized property management, mediation, and dispute resolution services to help families manage conflict and develop parenting plans that prioritize the best interests of the children.

If you need assistance, you can reach our Family Relationship Centre directly at 1300 348 248. Our team is here to provide support and guidance during this challenging time.

We are proud to be a part of Australia's Family Law System and are committed to adapting to any changes that may arise following the 2019 Australian Reform Law Commission Inquiry into Australia's Family Law System.

In addition to our family and relationship services, CatholicCare also offers The Bridge to Work – The 'Amal' Program. This program delivers face-to-face training for migrants and refugees, equipping them with the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in their new communities. We believe in empowering individuals from all walks of life and helping them build a brighter future.

Recently, CatholicCare's Group Toowoomba (GT), a refugee health advisory team, conducted a program led by four health consultants from the Yazidi community. This initiative aimed to address the unique healthcare needs of refugees and migrants in the Toowoomba area. We are proud to be able to provide specialized support to these communities and acknowledge their valuable contributions to the region.

We have seen firsthand the positive impact of our services on individuals and families. One client shared, "Attending counseling has changed my life. I am now doing very well and have started a small business. I am very thankful for the assistance." We are committed to continuing to make a difference in the lives of those we serve.

Lastly, we would like to acknowledge the traditional custodians of this land, the Giabul and Jarowair peoples. We are honored to be on their ancestral lands and recognize their deep connection to this area. CatholicCare is dedicated to fostering reconciliation and respect, celebrating the contributions of these communities and extending our support to those who now call Australia their new home.

Thank you for visiting CatholicCare Social Services. We are here to support you on your journey to wellbeing and look forward to assisting you.
