Open Place Support Service
On Wednesday 1 July, Relationships Australia Victoria will become the new provider of Open Place, a service that provides assistance and support to people who grew up in Victorian orphanages and homes during the last century, also known as Pre-1990 Care Leavers, or Forgotten Australians.
A Victorian Government Department of Health and Human Services information sheet for Pre-1990 Care Leavers/Forgotten Australians and those who work with them is available to download here.
Pre-1990 Care Leavers/Forgotten Australians can contact Open Place on 1800 779 379 (free call) for support or information about their current services.
