About Us

LIGHTHOUSE RESOURCES is an initiative of Kyabra Community Association Inc., established in late 2004, having grown out of Kyabra's commitment to supporting the development of learning cultures in human service organisations. Lighthouse Resources is committed to promote the development of these cultures through provision of training, professional supervision and consultancy services, drawing on strengths-based practice, and solution-focussed and narrative approaches.

Our Vision is that Lighthouse Resources is a best practice learning enterprise which aspires to build on the strengths of workers and organisations through the provision of high quality practice development opportunities. We are committed to enhancing the capacity of human services to achieve strong and fair communities.

About Kyabra

Kyabra Community Association Inc. (formerly Sunnybank Family Support Inc.) is a multi-service community based organisation that has been working within Brisbane’s inner southern suburbs for over 25 years in the fields of Child Protection, Disability Services, Community Development, Child Care, Relationship Education, Supported Accommodation, Youth and Family Work.

In recent years Kyabra has been through many changes as it has attempted a whole of agency implementation of strengths-based ideas and practice. Once separate service areas have been integrated to be responsive to individuals, families and communities.  The vision, values, operating principles and frameworks for practice of the organisation have been clarified. A new management structure and many new operational systems have been developed. There has also been a focus on the development of a “learning culture” to ensure continuous improvement and adaptation to the changing contexts of our culturally diverse communities.

Training, consultancy and professional supervision services reflect the richness of learning that has emerged from this organisational journey.
