About Pacific & Australian Community Services
A Community-Driven Organisation
Pacific & Australian Community Services Inc. (PACS) is a community-driven organisation dedicated to empowering Pasifika youth and men across the Liverpool and Campbelltown regions. We deliver tailored workshops, programs, and support services that address issues such as mental health, anger management, and reintegration challenges.

The Principles That Guide Us
Service
We are driven by a deep commitment to serving and uplifting our community.
Trust
We cultivate trust through collaboration, transparency, and respect.
Equity
We ensure all young people, regardless of background, have access to the support and opportunities they deserve.
Our Approach to Wellbeing & Community Safety
At PACS, we recognise that many individuals and families face interconnected challenges including mental health concerns, alcohol and other drug use, and domestic and family violence. These issues rarely exist in isolation and are often shaped by trauma, social circumstances and cultural disconnection. Through a holistic, wrap-around approach, we work alongside trusted partners to provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed support that promotes early intervention, healing and long-term wellbeing.
Through mentoring and leadership programs, we support young people and families to build confidence, life skills and healthy coping strategies, helping to reduce isolation, harmful behaviours and cycles of abuse or dependency. By connecting individuals with specialist mental health, alcohol and drug, counselling and domestic violence services, PACS aims to strengthen not only individual outcomes, but the safety, resilience and cultural wellbeing of the broader Pasifika community.
