About Us

Centacare: Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton (Centacare) upholds its role and commitment to deliver service excellence in the local community through the provision of quality development and support to individuals, couples, and families.

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:

1. Counselling and Education
2. Family Relationship Centres
3. Community Care
4. 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.
