Program Information
New and emerging communities
You may be finding it challenging if you have recently arrived in Australia, especially if you are a refugee or have experienced trauma in the past. We offer services to support you and your family to adjust to Australian life, including help accessing education, employment and other services.
Communities for children - new and emerging communities
We can provide formal and informal group activities to support your child’s wellbeing and development, safety and family life. This includes providing parents with skills and knowledge around parenting and understanding schooling requirements.
Hope's Café
A place to get to know others and develop a sense of belonging. Run together with the Clayton Wesley Uniting Church, Hope’s Café offers people from the eastern suburbs and surrounding communities – including refugees and those who feel disengaged and vulnerable – a place to get to know others and develop a sense of belonging.
