What the Amaroo Outreach Service does
The Outreach Service provides home based outreach to those who seek support in their own living environment and supported accommodation for those who require housing and support. Clients receive weekly home visits. All clients of the outreach service develop an individual recovery plan with their outreach worker and this plan forms the basis of the work that the outreach worker does with the client.
What the Outreach Service aims to do
The Outreach Service aims to support clients in their recovery and is based around individuals’ support needs. As such each client receives a service tailored around their individual recovery goals. Typically this might include supporting clients to; maintain a safe environment, learn new skills, gain greater access to their community, form new relationships and maximise their independence.
