Our story

QCOSS ANNUAL REPORT 2024- 2025

FROM LOCAL VOICES TO STATEWIDE IMPACT

For more than 65 years, QCOSS has stood alongside Queensland’s social service sector, critical social infrastructure that keeps our communities strong.  

​

We work with community organisations and frontline workers in every part of our state, bringing the breadth of these experiences together to guide our advocacy, and shape solutions. We shine a light on what works, call out what doesn’t, and hold government accountable. Whether at the negotiating table or in the media, we make sure the voices of the sector are heard in the places where decisions are made. 

​

Our commitment to the sector goes beyond advocacy. We work to strengthen the sector by providing training and capability-building, developing resources that help organisations deliver impact, and drive initiatives to grow and sustain the workforce. Everything we do is grounded in our dedication to improving outcomes for the organisations we represent and the communities they serve. 

​

Together, we are building a fairer, more connected Queensland,
one where equality, opportunity and wellbeing are everyday realities.
