About
Our services include:
- Working in 11 partner locations across rural and remote Queensland where we deliver frontline clinical services and build local capacity;
- Coordinating policy and practice changes across the health, early childhood and education sectors;
- Delivering workforce training and professional development for healthcare professionals and educators; and

- The Administration Team – which provides support to the other teams so they can do their work.
