In
1985 the Anglican Diocese of North Queensland, Townsville established
Cairns Anglican Youth Services (CAYS) on a volunteer basis through
local parishes, which saw the opening of our first crisis accommodation
for youth in Cairns.
Today we are known as Anglicare North Queensland
Limited and deliver 10 services across the far northern
region. Our annual budget is $5 million, which is primarily funded
by state government departments. However, donations and corporate
sponsorships provide valued support to our organisation and services.
