Koori Access Program (KAP)

The Koori Access Program aims to develop protocols and build strong partnerships with mainstream withdrawal services to improve the access & treatment outcomes for Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islanders.

Our experience tells us that whilst Aboriginal people with substance abuse problems often need access to specialist mainstream Alcohol & Drug Services, many are reluctant to do so for a wide variety of reasons.

The Koori A&D service sector is also limited to the provision of outreach counseling & support which do not always meet the specialist needs of our clients and their families.

The Koori Access Workers can assist clients gain access and be supported through the withdrawal programs that operate from most of the Melbourne based mainstream withdrawal services.
