54 Acacia Drive, Katherine
The Nation Building Economic Stimulus Plan provided funding to
refurbish an existing Territory Housing property in Katherine and to
create a facility comprising 8 x two-bedroom townhouses with
approximately 16 beds.
The Acacia Drive property is owned by the Territory Government
and is leased to the Kalano Community Association. Kalano will
operate the Katherine Regional Extended Aftercare Transition (KREAT)
program from the property.
KREAT is an additional twelve week residential program for people
who have completed the alcohol and drug program at Venndale.
The KREAT program aims to give participants life skills, improved
health, employment, education and training opportunities along with
transition preparation for entering mainstream life.
This facility is fully operational.
