Our mission

To build a strong, cohesive, and healthy community by developing and providing programs, activities, and services that respond to the needs of the most disadvantaged and isolated people in the community.

Our vision

A community with true heart

The Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre was founded in 1989 as a community-based initiative to provide help, friendship, and support to the most disenfranchised people in the community. The emphasis of all of our activities is on people and the relief of issues and concerns that impede them from living a successful and happy life.

We develop and deliver programs and services in response to community needs. Presently, the Hervey Bay Neighbourhood Centre manages 30 funded programs that encompass aspects of aged care, family services, diversity, and social isolation.

Our values

Integrity  -  Social Justice  -  Compassion  -  Collaboration  -  Openness

Our priority core values are:

• To be a leader in Community Development
• To ensure staff and volunteers are equipped to deliver quality services
• To maximise our resources to support our mission
• To embrace new opportunities through innovation
• To ensure we are listened to by Government, supported by business, and respected by the community
