selectability is a not-for-profit charity dedicated to improving mental wellbeing and preventing suicide across regional Queensland.
We believe everyone deserves access to high-quality supports locally and at every stage of life. Over the past year, we’ve strengthened our commitment to delivering child and family care, along with aged care services, so that more Queenslanders in regional, rural and remote communities have access to the support they need.
Operating across a diverse geographic footprint, our head office is based in Townsville. Our aged care services span the Lower Gulf communities of Normanton, Mornington Island, and Doomadgee, and selectabiity has recently expanded this program to Aurukun.
Since 2021, we’ve provided child and family care services, and in that time have expanded and matured our program to ensure more children and young people have access to the residential care they need.
Today, we support 18 diverse communities—extending north to Aurukun, south to Rockhampton, and west to Mount Isa.
