Reconnect

What do we offer?

Reconnect is a community based early intervention program that is federally funded by the Department of Social Services to work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people aged 12 – 18 years who are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

Reconnect works with young people and their families to support and stabilise their housing situation/s.

  • Counselling (individual and family)
  • Mediation
  • Group Work
  • Outreach
  • Practical Support
