The Centre has been managed by the City of Port Adelaide Enfield since 1996, receiving funds from the State Government Department for Families and Communities to provide a range of social, educational and recreational services. The Parks Centre is part of the larger State Government owned Parks site that occupies approximately 14 hectares of land and accommodates a range of government services, agencies and community groups.

Parks Review
In September 2010, the State Government notified Council that it would no longer provide funding to operate and manage the Parks and that the Council- run services at the Parks Community Centre would cease on or before 18 March 2011. Subsequent communication between Council and the State Government secured further funding for Council services at the Parks until 30 September, 2011. During late 2010, a review of the programs and facilities was conducted by Monsignor David Cappo on behalf of the State Government. Groups and individuals were invited to contribute to this consultation. A report about the future of the Parks was released by the Social Inclusion Unit on Thursday 23 June, 2011.
