Wellspring Women and Girls' Health Hub
2024–25
In early 2025, Micah Projects opened a new Women and Girls’ Health Hub at Caboolture, funded by Queensland Health.
In partnership with our community partners, we work alongside women and girls to help solve problems, navigate systems and provide services that support health and wellbeing, with a focus on people who experience barriers to care, isolation and discrimination.
The hub offers a welcoming, private, women-friendly space for health and related services and includes medical, nursing, counselling social support and specialist services.
Thank you to community partners delivering services:
- True, relationships and reproductive health
