Nourishing Meals, Bright Futures is a new initiative by IMPACT Community Services, which will be launched as part of Anti-Poverty Week in Queensland (October 13-19).

This project, which will roll out early 2025, is intended to see families collaborate with our hospitality students, under the expert guidance of trainer Leigh Francis, to develop customised menus based on dietary needs. The nourishing meals created aim to provide essential sustenance for the families, particularly for young people, supporting their wellbeing and learning.

Initially, we will involve families from our Intensive Family Support program, raising awareness within the family unit about healthy diets. This initiative aligns with IMPACT’s focus on holistic wellbeing, supporting youth emotionally, educationally, and physically.
