Short Term Accommodation in Fawkner

We’ve just opened a beautiful new Short Term Accommodation (STA) for adults aged 18 to 65.

 

It’s a safe, welcoming space where you can relax, recharge, and get the support you need. It has a bus stop right outside that connects to the North Coburg tram into the city.

 

Activities will be planned for the weekends and where appropriate during the week. We are also about increasing independent living skills and getting people ready to move into appropriate accommodation.

 

Fawkner address will be released once referral form has been approved
