You are invited to our Open Day!

We are celebrating our move to Woolloongabba! Come to our Open Day on Friday 21st February from 3pm to 7pm – you can come at any time.

Our Vision

Our vision is to build health equity in the Australian health system. This is a large and ambitious vision. We believe that the health and wellbeing of the whole community cannot be at an optimum if sections within our community continue to be marginalised and excluded in the health system. 

We work collaboratively with stakeholders at all levels in the health and social care sectors via direct health service delivery, research, data-informed training and policy advice, philanthropy and partnerships and by elevating the voices of diverse people with lived experience. We measure our success by our impact in creating a just and inclusive health and wellness system.
