For 50 years, RFQ has served the community by providing compassionate, tailored support for people experiencing mental health challenges, as well as their families, carers and wider networks.
“I think lack of motivation is something that a lot of people with mental health difficulties struggle with, and I was no exception. I felt hopeless; like I couldn’t go on. I didn’t want to face the world. It was like I knew I was in a bad situation, but I couldn’t possibly take the steps to change it. I’ll always remember what RFQ did for me when I needed it most. I feel more optimistic than I have in a long time; I now believe that I can build a great life. I’m getting there – slowly but surely.” – Isaac, former client
Today, our team of 400+ supports more than 11,500 clients across ten key programs and services, spanning 18 locations. But it all started back in the 1960s with a Dutch nurse, a Brisbane doctor – and a shared dream for people experiencing mental health challenges.
