Our Journey

Since 1987, Community Connections Australia (CCA) has been providing personalised disability support across Greater Sydney. Discover how our values, experienced team and commitment to choice have helped thousands of people connect with the right support to live life their way.

———-

Our journey almost 40 years ago when we were established as Residential Care Inc., initially funded by the NSW Government, as a pilot program moving people out of institutional and congregate care settings into their own homes within the community.

Then, in 2001 we changed our name to Community Connections Australia. This change allowed us to better reflect our ongoing commitment to our core philosophy and beliefs.

Throughout the years of providing services, CCA has evolved and adapted, yet our fundamental mission, vision, purpose, and values have remained, ensuring our services empower people to lead fulfilling and self-directed lives.

We Are Driven By Our CCA Values

Autonomous

We empower each person to shape their own path. Each person’s goal, choices and voice guide every decision, ensuring genuine independence and self-direction in all aspects of their life.

Collaborative

We build real connections with people working alongside them to achieve their goals. Together, we create strong communities where each person is the epicentre of their support network.
