Youth Mentoring and Outreach Support Services
Engaging young people in the community, at home, or within educational settings to deliver consistent, strengths-based mentoring, positive role modelling, and practical guidance through life’s challenges. Our approach fosters trust, builds self-efficacy, and empowers young people to make informed decisions and achieve meaningful personal goals.
Youth Crisis Accommodation
Harbour & Anchor provides safe, short-term crisis accommodation for young people experiencing homelessness, family breakdown, or unstable living environments. Our accommodation services offer more than just a place to stay — they provide a supportive, trauma-informed setting where young people can feel secure, respected, and heard. Each young person is supported through comprehensive wraparound care, including case management, emotional support, and connections to therapeutic, educational, and housing pathways. Our goal is not only to meet their immediate needs but to empower them to transition confidently into safer, more stable long-term solutions.
Respite Services
Harbour & Anchor offers flexible, high-quality respite care to young people and our clients, including tailored support for individuals living with disability or complex needs. Our respite services are designed to provide a safe, engaging, and supportive environment where our clients can participate in meaningful activities that promote social inclusion, independence, and personal development. We recognise the vital role carers play, and our respite care also offers them a well-deserved break, knowing their loved ones are in trusted hands. Each respite plan is individually tailored to align with the participant’s goals, interests, and support needs, ensuring that both the individual and their family or support network experience genuine benefit and peace of mind
Disability Community Access Support
Harbour & Anchor provides individualised community access support for NDIS participants, focused on fostering independence, enhancing social inclusion, and improving overall quality of life. We work closely with each participant to design support plans that align with their unique goals, interests, and capabilities. Whether it's assistance with daily activities, support to engage in recreational or cultural events, or guidance to build life and social skills, our team is committed to creating opportunities that are meaningful, empowering, and person-centred. Our services are delivered with a strong emphasis on dignity, choice, and control — ensuring every participant feels respected, connected, and supported as they pursue a more independent and fulfilling life.
Pathway Bridging and Service Connection
Harbour & Anchor supports individuals and families in navigating complex service systems and bridging the gaps between them and the resources they need to thrive. Our experienced team provides hands-on assistance in accessing therapeutic supports, engaging with education and training providers, securing safe and stable housing, and exploring meaningful employment opportunities. We understand that these pathways can often feel overwhelming, particularly for those facing multiple challenges. That’s why we take a collaborative and person-centred approach — working closely with each individual to understand their goals, advocate on their behalf when needed, and ensure seamless connections to the right services at the right time. Our aim is to empower people with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to take the next steps toward a more stable and independent future.
Family Support Services
At Harbour & Anchor, we work in close partnership with parents, carers, and extended family members to build stronger, healthier home environments. Our family support services are designed to enhance family functioning by fostering effective communication, strengthening relationships, and promoting emotional wellbeing. We provide practical strategies to help families manage daily challenges, navigate conflict, and build resilience — all while respecting each family's unique structure, values, and cultural identity. Whether facing stress from life transitions, behavioural challenges, or the demands of caregiving, we offer compassionate, hands-on support to ensure families feel heard, empowered, and equipped to move forward together.
