Operation Path2Home
Helping young people stay on track, we collaborate with Victoria Police to support youth at risk of entering the justice system. P2H aids youth facing school disengagement, family instability, and early police contact by providing trauma-informed support, including outreach, life skills, counselling, family workshops, and vocational guidance.
Through school re-engagement, wraparound community reintegration, aftercare support, family support, and mentoring, we have helped 70% of youth build a future beyond the legal system.
Collective Healings
We organise therapeutic events and workshops rooted in traditional African practices and cultural values. Activities include evidence-based practices such as mindfulness, art, yoga, cultural dance, drumming, nature therapy, and storytelling.

Peer Support Groups
We offer tailored semi-structured psychosocial support groups for various demographics, including youth, women, men, families, friends, and carers, to connect and gain skills and strategies for looking after themselves while supporting their loved ones through recovery journeys.
Eligible participants can reduce traffic-related fines by up to $1,300 per month through the Work Development Scheme (WDP), alleviating financial burdens and promoting compliance. Groups can be accessed in person and virtually.
Family Support
When dealing with the addiction of someone close to you, you become used to living on a roller coaster. You will try everything to stop your addicted loved one from using but alone you are left exhausted and disappointed.
We provide free support for families, friends, and carers. We provide information, advice, advocacy, and education to empower families impacted by loved one’s drug use and mental illness.
