During the 25th birthday celebration in 2011 of the Family Action Centre, patron Geraldine Doogue made the following statement:

I'm very proud to be a patron of the Family Action Centre because it embodies a blend of practical action plus ongoing enquiry that I think is the best of Australian pragmatism. It also puts the Health of our communities right up there with other more publicised issues, like economics and politics...we accord this the highest priority.
