BGAC is based in a community charity space operated by Ipswich City Council and they work with the Department of Education as well as the Commonwealth Home Support Programme. Through BGAC, Yuggera-Ugarapul language has been made accessible to countless community members of all ages. Kevin Anderson, a managing director of BGAC, is also a member of the Yuggera-Ugarapul Native Title Applicant.
SEQILC regularly supports BGAC and their work with language with assistance on linguistics, research, resources, and planning.
