About Us

Myimbarr is a fully accredited Aboriginal Out of Home Care & Family Preservation service based in Wollongong. We are dedicated to ensuring every Aboriginal child and young person has a loving and supportive home, whether that be with their parents, extended family, kin, or through other carer arrangements.

We are a family-friendly, flexible workplace that values long-term employment and career growth. Our stable, multi-disciplinary team brings together over 30 years of collective experience and knowledge to deliver high-quality, culturally informed, trauma-responsive casework.

What We Do

At Myimbarr, we empower Aboriginal children, young people, and families through culturally situated, trauma-informed casework. Our service is growing, and we are actively welcoming new team members to help us support more children and families in need.
