Shepparton Community Services and Outreach.

If you are experiencing family violence, you don’t need to endure it alone. With Uniting Vic.Tas, we offer various support programs so you have access to the right support to help you move forward. You can discuss your circumstances and the steps towards a safer future with a compassionate and trained counsellor with our family violence counselling service. 

Our group family violence programs offer respectful and supportive environments for people experiencing family violence to share experiences and help acknowledge the harm caused by abuse and take responsibility.

Whether it’s caused by the rising cost of living or a relationship breakdown, homelessness can happen to anyone. That’s why Uniting Vic.Tas offers Shepparton residents housing and homelessness support so they can access a safe place to call home. 

We are able to provide you with emergency and longer-term housing options as well as advice and information about homelessness through our dedicated homelessness support service.

If you are new to the Shepparton area, it can take some time to feel connected and included within the community. 

• Our multicultural services work with people from diverse backgrounds to ensure that they can easily settle into our community and receive the support they need.
• Our new arrivals support program is for asylum seekers who have newly arrived in Shepparton and provides assistance with housing, food and essential items.
• We also offer specialised youth support programs which are specifically designed for newly arrived young people. Our support and inclusion service is here to help everyone feel connected to the community and build on their strengths through participation and networking programs.

At Uniting Vic.Tas, we understand that some Shepparton young people may be struggling to feel engaged with school, family and the wider community and require special support. Our school engagement programs work with students who may be at risk of disengaging with school, and encourage them to find confidence in their strengths, attend school regularly and get the most out of their education.
