About Us
Coastlink is the Central Coast’s most trusted disability and aged care provider.
Established in 1985 as a non-profit organisation, we began by providing family-based care for children living with disability.
Over the last four decades, our services have expanded. Today, we provide quality aged care and disability supports to people of all ages with a variety of physical, intellectual, sensory, social or age-related abilities.
But our commitment to improving the daily lives of our clients remains unchanged.
Every day, we change the lives of people living with disability by removing barriers to their success and empowering them to live a life of their choice.
Fostering an enclusive environment
Coastlink is committed to creating a safe, inclusive and welcoming environment for LGBTQI+ clients, families, carers and staff. We recognise and respect the diversity of sexual orientations, gender identities and intersex variations, and actively promote a culture of dignity, inclusion and belonging. This commitment is demonstrated through inclusive policies and practices, respectful communication, non-discriminatory service delivery, and ongoing staff education. Coastlink supports individuals to express their identity openly and safely, ensuring that all people are treated with respect, have equal access to opportunities and services, and feel valued for who they are.
Indigenous recognition
Coastlink is committed to recognising, respecting and celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, cultures, histories and communities. We strive to create culturally safe, inclusive environments for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander clients, families, carers and staff. This commitment is demonstrated through meaningful engagement with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, strengthening our cultural capability, supporting workforce diversity, and embedding culturally respectful practices across our organisation. Coastlink acknowledges the importance of self-determination, connection to Country, family and community, and is committed to ensuring Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people feel welcomed, respected, valued and empowered in all aspects of our services and workplace.
