About us
YMCA Whittlesea exists to serve and strengthen the community.
Who We Are
The Y Inclusion Services is a division of Y Whittlesea, a not-for-profit community organisation with deep roots in Melbourne's north. For over 30 years, our Inclusion Services team has provided disability support across Victoria, growing from a small local program into a registered NDIS provider operating across Melbourne Metro North.
We're not a large national corporation. We're a local team that genuinely knows the communities we serve, from Bundoora and Epping to Craigieburn and the Mitchell Shire area. Our support workers, coordinators and program leaders choose this work because they care about the people they support. That shows in the outcomes we achieve together.
As part of Y Whittlesea, everything we do is grounded in the Y's values of respect, responsibility, honesty and care. We are mission-driven, not profit-driven, and that shapes how we deliver support every day.

Our mission
To empower people with disability to live the life they choose.
We exist to provide high-quality, person-centred disability support that gives individuals real choice, real independence, and the opportunity to reach their full potential.
Our Vision
An inclusive Victoria where every person belongs.
We envision communities where disability is no barrier to participation, connection or opportunity, and where every person is valued for who they are.
Our approach to disability support
Person-Centred
Every support plan is built around the individual, their goals, preferences, routine and life - not a standard template.
Independence Focused
We build skills and confidence so participants can do more on their own over time. Our goal is never dependency.
Community Connected
We help people participate in their communities. Forming friendships, joining activities and building genuine social networks.
