The
Isis Child and Family Support Service is an exciting initiative funded
jointly by the Bundaberg Regional Council and the Department of Communities. We
assist families in acquiring and developing effective, sustainable parenting
skills to use toward enhancing positive and rewarding parenting skills.
Isis Child and Family Support Service is located at the
Childers Neighbourhood Centre and provides services, and a variety of programs are also
run from the council premises at 14
