Strong Children, Strong Families and a Culturally Strong Community
Supporting Children, Families & Community
Winanga-li is one of nine centres in New South Wales (38 nationally) that were established and funded as a Closing the Gap initiative.
Our overall aim is to provide culturally safe and appropriate education and care and support services for children and families.
The Winanga-li DIfference
Our approach blends cultural knowledge, community connection and practical support to help families feel safe, strong and supported.
Grounded in Culture
Winanga-li is built on connection to Country, culture and community. Our work honours Aboriginal ways of caring for families and strengthening wellbeing.
Practical Help, Real Impact
From early learning to family services, housing and community programs, we support people through every stage of life.
Community-Led Support
We listen first. Our programs are shaped by the needs and strengths of families across Gunnedah, Tamworth and the North West.
A Safe Place for Everyone
We create welcoming, culturally safe spaces where families feel supported, respected and empowered.
Open Your Heart and Your Home to Change a Life.
Do you believe in a better future? Do you have love to give and knowledge to share? Caring for a child is the most rewarding gift you can give. All children deserve a safe and loving home, that’s why we became an accredited provider of Out of Home Care.
