DAISI Services Limited

DAISI Services Limited is an award-winning community based charity organisation founded in Ballina, Northern NSW in 1992. DAISI grew out of a ground swell of community members back in 1992 concerned about the lack of information and advice on supports and services for people with disabilities. Over time that role has expanded to include projects addressing the needs of people who are ageing, people who are experiencing disadvantage, from culturally and linguistically diverse and non-English speaking backgrounds (CALD/NESB), primary carer grandparents caring for their grandchildren and working carers. DAISI now delivers information, resources and assistance to a diverse range of people across the Far North Coast in NSW and Gold Coast in QLD. Our mission is to connect the disadvantaged, people with disability and the aged to both formal and natural supports in their community to realise their full potential. We do this by providing up-to-date and relevant information that is easily accessible and user friendly. We work with people to build their capacity to access opportunities, engage with their communities and realise their full potential. DAISI is committed to its values of: Trust and Accountability Individualised Practice Sustainability Capacity Building
