About
Northside is a 200+ strong team of exceptional and courageous workers who support people and families to make sure no-one gets left behind - ever.
We are a community-based, not for profit organisation established in 1976 through the efforts of concerned people wanting to provide and develop support and services for residents of North Canberra.

children’s services
services for older people and people with a disability
home support, transport and social programs for seniors
support programs for young people and families
women’s housing and emergency relief
