      Helping you find purpose, connection and support 

      RSL Queensland is here for all veterans and their families – helping you find purpose, connection and support when you need it. 

      Across the state, we deliver programs and partnerships that promote your physical and mental wellness and help open doors to employment and purpose. 

      As custodians of commemorative events across Queensland, we uphold the legacy of service members past and present. 

      And through our state-wide network of RSL Sub Branches, we nurture the deep and enduring ties created through service, and provide you with opportunities to continue to serve our communities. 

      For every veteran, every day of the year, RSL Queensland is creating valuable connections for life.
