Our Story
When a small group of community members met in Canterbury-Bankstown in 1972 and formed Bankstown Community Services Co-operative, the idea of providing services to thousands of children and families over 50 years was probably beyond their wildest dreams.
The group of community members shared the same passion and belief that all children, young people, and families were entitled to live and grow up in safe, productive, resilient, and inclusive communities.
In the early 2000’s, Bankstown Community Services Co-operative transitioned to what we are now known as, Creating Links.
In 2013, Creating Links became a registered Foster Care provider, and together with Disability and Child & Family services, thousands of clients have been provided quality care and support since the inception.
