Who We Are

Keystone Community Care is a team of dedicated disability support workers based in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We specialise in providing personalised NDIS core supports for self-managed participants, helping people live independently, connect with their community, and achieve their goals on their own terms.

What makes us different is our genuine passion for the work we do. We are not a large corporate provider — we are a close-knit team that takes the time to truly understand each participant's needs, interests, and aspirations. We believe that the right support worker match can transform someone's quality of life.

Our Values

Person-Centred

Every support plan is built around the individual — their goals, preferences, and lifestyle choices.

Community Focused

We reinvest in local disability programs and community initiatives across Brisbane and Gold Coast.

Qualified & Screened

All team members hold NDIS Worker Screening, First Aid, CPR, and relevant disability qualifications.

Passionate & Energetic

Our passionate, dedicated team brings energy, creativity, and genuine care to every interaction.

Meet the Team

Keystone Community Care was built by two people who saw an opportunity to do disability support differently — with heart, consistency, and a genuine commitment to every participant's wellbeing.

Heidi Griffiths, Founder and General Manager of Keystone Community Care
Founder & General Manager

Heidi Griffiths

With more than 13 years of hands-on experience in community care and operations management, Heidi founded Keystone Community Care to bridge the gap between large corporate providers and the deeply personal support that NDIS participants deserve. Her career has spanned frontline disability support, team leadership, and service design — giving her a rare perspective that combines operational expertise with genuine empathy. Heidi leads every aspect of Keystone's operations, from participant onboarding and support worker matching to quality assurance and community partnerships. Her philosophy is simple: treat every participant the way you would want your own family to be treated. Under her leadership, Keystone has grown into a trusted provider known for consistency, warmth, and going the extra mile.

Her commitment to person-centred support sets the standard for the entire Keystone team.
