Challenge Community Services

Over 60 years ago we were a small band of parents and friends seeking support services for our children with disabilities. Today, Challenge has grown to be one of the largest community support services in New South Wales. Challenge provides support to over 2500 people from Albury to Lismore, Sydney, Dubbo, Tamworth and beyond. With over 700 staff, 85 of which have a disability, we strive to comply with and exceed all standards required under State and Federal Acts. We have established various services including Disability Services, Foster Care, Therapeutic Services and Business Services. Challenge is committed to providing person-centred programs and support to foster carers, children and young people, people with a disability and their families.
