About Us
Who We Are
Jeovic Community care (JCC) was established in 2019 in response to local community demand for quality community support services. JCC is a nongovernment, privately owned service provider with HDAA certification. As a responsive organisation, we have a team of trained Support Workers and Youth Workers. Our Disability Support Workers provide disability support services under the National Disability Insurance Scheme. Our Youth Workers provide emergency accommodation support for children and young people under statutory intervention from the Department of Children, youth Justice and Multicultural Affairs
Mission Statement

They are about being treated fairly, treating others fairly and having the ability to make genuine choices in our daily lives.” Respect for human rights is the cornerstone of strong communities in which everyone can contribute and feel included” (Australian Human Rights Commission)
