Our purpose

Waminda Services Limited was established to respond to the changing needs of adults and children who have a disability and to their families. We cover a very large region of south west Queensland with Dalby as its hub. Waminda continues a research program to ensure the special needs of this fast-growing part of Australia are properly met.

 
About Waminda Services

Waminda is an outgrowth of its community in every sense.

Established by St Marks Lutheran Church and initially funded by the Federal Government as an Activity Therapy Centre, the organisation determined to carry on its work even when the legislation changed in the 1980s and government funding for ACTs was withdrawn.

The energy and generosity of local people helped Waminda to continue its work then, as it still does now that government funding has been restored.

Core values that the organisation supports and rewards in all its workers are:

Integrity - honesty in fulfilling our legal and social commitments; Quality - meeting the expectations of our customers; and Community - supporting those who access our services.


 
Our goal for clients

Our primary task is to support and encourage people with a disability to develop their skills and capacity towards achieving their optimum available lifestyle:

· to enjoy life
· to achieve paid employment positions
· to become increasingly able to meet their personal and independent living needs
· to increase their literacy ability
· to enjoy the benefits of being a contributing community citizen.
