Townsville Intercultural Centre
Ltd.


Through its diversified services, Townsville Intercultural Centre Ltd (TIC) is able to assist newcomers to the Townsville region with the settlement process and to provide services and assistance to facilitate newcomers’ full participation in the local community. TIC’s services are primarily directed towards immigrants and refugees, particularly newly arrived migrants who are permanent residents.

 


 

TIC believes that sustainable settlement solutions for individuals and communities must include all community stakeholders, including the ethnic sectors and mainstream human services, working together in the process of planning, developing, delivering and evaluating services that are flexible enough to accommodate current and future immigration, social, political and economic trends of our region.
