Connections Program

The Connections Program works with people who are experiencing both:

• Unmet health needs and
• Homelessness, housing issues, or living in low-cost accommodation (including social or public housing)

The Connections Program also supports people who may:

• Have few links to other services
• Need support and to gain skills to live independently
• Are isolated with little social or family support
• Have complex support needs
• Live in unsafe housing
• Experience hoarding and squalor
• Have difficulty making or attending appointments
• Have difficulty finding the right services
• Need links to health and community supports

A vital role of the Connections Program is to support people to link to the appropriate services.

Our catchment areas are:

• Banyule
• Whittlesea
• Darebin
• Nillumbik
• Brunswick and East Brunswick

We also support people over 55 years of age living in low-cost accommodation in:

• Hume
• Moreland

We accept referrals from all services, families, friends and individuals.
