Flood support

The extensive flooding in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria has left a wake of devastation. As the full picture of these circumstances is realised, I wish to offer our thoughts to the people in our communities who have been directly affected by the water, and those who are assisting in every way possible to provide help.

The USQ Counselling Service offers free confidential support to students of the University. Counsellors are all qualified professionals. You can arrange for phone counselling by contacting us by email or phone in the first instance. More information is available from Student Services or email stsv@usq.edu.au or phone +61 7 4631 2372.
