Imagine a future where a safety net is no longer needed in our community...

Since 1977, Community Northern Beaches has served vulnerable and disadvantaged people in the Northern Beaches. The organisation offers vital drop-in and targeted support, addressing homelessness, domestic violence, and refugee settlement challenges through inclusive and trauma-informed assistance. Our early intervention programs empower families, young people, and children, fostering resilience and future well-being. We also provide people with material aid and connect them to other services via our Community Hubs.

Our mission is to build connections, strengthen the community and foster future well-being by providing accessible support that is responsive to the community's needs.
