(previously known as Gymea Community Aid and Information Service)
At Kai’Mia Community, we help people thrive, belong and live well. For over 50 years, we’ve been at the heart of the Sutherland Shire and Greater Sydney, connecting individuals and families with the services, opportunities and community they need.
Our person-centred programs support people at every stage of life – from newly arrived migrants and young people to older adults and community members seeking connection.
