We are national in reach, operating in all States and Territories.
We work with and through schools.
We work at scale. In 2010 we worked in 3,200 schools (1). Each of these schools self-selected to partner with us, purchase our services (2) and make available our program to 610,000 students in their care.
Operating since 1979, in excess of 4 million students have participated in our program over the past 32 years.
