Carinity Fassifern Community Centre provides a wide range of services to support vulnerable residents in Boonah and surrounds to participate positively in their community. The services are designed to support the varied needs of the local area, and include public awareness events, education courses and training, as well as exercise and support groups. Social activities are also a highlight and provide the community with an opportunity to connect and share experiences. The community centre is the local Centrelink agency and provides space for other organisations and groups to meet their members. The centre hosts many visiting services such as allied health providers, psychologists and counsellors, Job Active and Disability Employment agencies, and U3A.
Based on your choices, needs and goals, a wide range of activities and services are available. The community centre is co-located with Bunderra, our disability service providing support for people with disability and their families.
