TESTIMONIALS

Hear from those whose lives we've touched.

After working with Rockhampton Support Services, my house is a lot calmer. I am a single mother of an ASD child and ODD child. Before working with the team at Rockhampton Support Services my house was filled with rage, extreme behaviour responses, destruction and mayhem, but working with the team, they helped us find structure within our loving household. There are still moments of heightened behaviour, but well within tolerable limits.

I am so grateful for Darrel and Rockhampton support services and the whole team and I often refer to this service as earth angels. Our journey is not over and never ending and I am constantly learning more and more every day but I’m so proud of how far we have come and none of this would have been possible without this support service . This Support service has changed our life and I will forever be grateful .
