Support Hub for Veterans and their families – coming in 2023
Lives Lived Well will open a Veterans’ and Families’ Hub in Caboolture, in northern Brisbane, in the last quarter of 2023. The Hub is being funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs and will offer a dedicated, welcoming, confidential space for veterans and their families to connect with others and receive support for their wellbeing. We will operate the Hub in partnership with the Vietnam Veterans Association of Australia (Queensland Branch).
Our Hub will provide simple and flexible access to relevant services. Our team will comprise of Wellbeing Coordinators and volunteers with lived experience of veteran life to ensure anyone accessing the Hub is supported in a safe and understanding way. Key services provided will include social connection, engagement, wellbeing support and case management. Other services offered at the Hub may include employment, housing, transition support and advocacy.
Our team will work in partnership with Ex-Service Organisations (ESOs) and other key services to help veterans or their family members to access services and support. Wellbeing co-ordination will be delivered in-person, by phone and online to ensure flexibility and accessibility.
For Service Providers:
Our Hub will offer opportunities for co-location, renting counselling rooms, group rooms or using the social space, including a commercial kitchen.
