MY COMPANIES
bringing communities together for safety & understanding
Every person deserves to go home safely each night.
Bridging the communication gap between first responders and the vulnerable communities is my mission.
Founder, Kathrine Peereboom
iSafe Connect
I created iSafe Connect from the belief that no life should be compromised due to a lack of accurate information. This global platform gives individuals, carers, first responders and enterprises access to voluntarily shared data that can help save lives on a worldwide scale.
iSafe Connect not only provides enhanced freedom and independence for individuals who may be at risk, but also gives families and carers peace of mind, knowing there is a tool with compassion at its heart.
For first responders and enterprises, iSafe Connect is a simple yet powerful integration that delivers real-time information about individuals in vulnerable situations. With personalised knowledge at hand, responders can approach safely, reduce misunderstandings, and prevent avoidable tragedies.
Australian First Autism & Law Enforcement Trainer
Spectrum Support was founded in 2017 in honour of my three boys. Over the years we have become a fixture in disability education for law enforcement across Australia.
Our success is underpinned by our team and the community who contribute to this vital training along with police officers who actively participate in making the communities they serve safer for autistic and disabled Australians.
In 2020 our training expanded to allied health workers across Australia. Each organisation we work with is focussed on providing better support to their client base and on being more inclusive to the disability community. I truly believe this is a great step forward.
Speaker
Events, TV, Podcasts, Radio...
I am always willing to spread my message through live events, media or interviews. My team and I are happy to dive deeper into how and why we do what we do. With a complex and fast-paced world out there, nothing reaches people more than people.

Advisory Committee
Autism Awareness Australia is the nation’s leading not-for-profit dedicated to education, advocacy, and inclusion for autistic individuals and their families. Through campaigns, resources, and nationwide programs, AAA drives meaningful change by promoting understanding, acceptance, and practical support across all stages of life.
As a long standing member of the Professional and Parent Advisory Committee, I’ve contributed over the past four years to shaping programs and initiatives that reflect the real world experiences of families living with autism. Our collective goal is to ensure every voice is heard and that policy, awareness and community initiatives truly represent the diversity and needs of Australia’s autism community.
National Ambassador
Keeley’s Cause provides iPads for children diagnosed with Autism and Intellectual disabilities.
We don’t want to see another child pushed through the education system without the necessary technology to succeed.
Our education system does not sit equally when it comes to assisting children who may require additional help. Public schools are more often than not faced with a [lack of] funding, and unfortunately, specialist schools and private options are not available to the community as a whole.
Keeley’s Cause was established by Keeley and her mother, Sharon, after seeing firsthand the benefits technology can bring to children with Autism and Intellectual disabilities.
Studies have shown that introducing iPads into learning situations has a positive effect on children’s development, from fine motor skills to developing ways to communicate.
As an Ambassador for Keeley's Cause I welcome all conversation to support and further their goals.
Festival of Fun
Project Manager - Steering Committee - Voluntary
The inaugural Festival of FUN is a multi-faceted, family-friendly event that aims to bring people of all abilities together across one day for an inclusive, accessible, social and welcoming experience. The day is open to all, however, is specifically designed and considered for people with a disability, their families, friends, carers and guardians.
It will be a day that encourages people with disabilities, their families, friends, carers, and guardians to explore, try new things, interact with service providers, socialise, have FUN, and enjoy entertainment from some of Queensland and Australia’s most well-known artists and performers.
Our primary audience is the person with a disability, giving them a voice in what can sometimes be a voiceless world. Together, our aim will be to deliver an event that can be shared equally by everyone, and brings everyone together.
We invite you to join us in putting people with a disability first, and create a day that helps each of us understand, appreciate, and be part of creating an inclusive and accessible environment every day for people with a disability.
Therapy & Dance Association Inc.
President, Voluntary (2022 - 2025)
As voluntary President, I led a passionate team dedicated to creating a safe, joyful space where children and young adults with disabilities could express themselves freely through dance. Since its beginnings in 2014, TADA has grown into a vibrant community that celebrates individuality, confidence, and inclusion proving that dance has the power to heal, connect, and empower.
When I stepped into leadership, the organisation was turning over around $20K annually. Through strategic partnerships, community engagement, and renewed purpose, I helped grow that figure more than sixfold securing over $130K in funding and support to expand programs and reach more families.
After four years of growth and transformation, I happily stepped away from the role leaving it in the hands of those eager to continue the journey. My hope is that under their leadership, the charity will continue to thrive.
