We believe in creating a socially just and caring community in which every person is safe, secure & valued

Having first opened our doors in 1981, we continue to offer accommodation and support services to more than 800 vulnerable children, young people and their families annually across the Central West. With offices in Bathurst and Orange, we have grown to become one of the region’s largest providers of foster care and youth homelessness services, employing more than 100 people. As a community-based organisation, Veritas staff are local and able to be responsive to the unique needs of those living in our area.

We are not-for-profit organisation and registered charity with some incredible supporters. Together we are changing the lives of vulnerable children, young people and their families in our community.
